Abstract As the metaverse expands, understanding how people use virtual reality to learn and connect is increasingly important. We used Transformed Social Interaction paradigm (Bailenson et al., 2004) examine different avatar identities environments over time. In Study 1 (n = 81), entitativity, presence, enjoyment, realism increased 8 weeks. Avatars that resembled participants synchrony, simila...

Many social scientists have argued that research should be designed to perform a ‘critical’ function, in the sense of challenging the socio-political status quo. However, very often, the relationship between the political value judgements underpinning this commitment and the values intrinsic to inquiry, as a distinct form of activity has been left obscure. Furthermore, the validity of those jud...

Convincing and compelling virtual environments that are populated with rich characters demand consistent, nuanced, and realistic behavior that is integrated in the surrounding environment. Inadequate and unscalable traditional Artificial Intelligence based approaches have made it impractical to apply this level of character depth and detail to large environments. We introduce the concept of Sup...

The AI techniques used in commercial games are usually predictable, inflexible and unadaptive, causing a lack of realism for the player. In this paper, we introduce a proposal of integrating the ALIVE framework, based on Organisational theory, into commercial games. The objective of our proposal is to provide game AI developers with a methodology and tools to model gaming scenarios using social...

Human-like characters in the interface may evoke social responses in users, and literature suggests that realism is the most important factor herein. However, the effects of interface characters on the user are not well understood. We developed an integrative framework, called I-PEFiC, to explain ‘persona’ and realism effects on the user. We tested an important part of the model using an experi...

Laboratory experiments are a widely used methodology for advancing causal knowledge in the physical and life sciences. With the exception of psychology, the adoption of laboratory experiments has been much slower in the social sciences, although during the past two decades the use of lab experiments has accelerated. Nonetheless, there remains considerable resistance among social scientists who ...
