沉浸式与非沉浸式媒介的注意力恢复作用比较

Comparison between the Effects of Immersive and Non-Immersive Media on Attention Restoration

目的通过在球幕与银幕中模拟自然环境,比较两者的注意力恢复作用。探讨沉浸式媒介中虚拟自然环境的应用价值。方法挑选30名大学生,随机分成两组。施加压力进行引诱,进行注意力能力指标测量以及持续性注意力的反应测试。实验组观看球幕自然影片,对照组观看银幕自然影片,两组观看影片后再次采集注意力数据。结果两组在观看自然影像后,注意力皆得到恢复,球幕组的注意力恢复效果更显著。结论较传统使用非沉浸式媒介模拟自然环境而言,利用沉浸式媒介能获得更显著的注意力恢复效果。在沉浸式媒介中,虚拟自然环境的应用实践值得深入研究。

It aims to analyze the attention restoration effects of virtual natural environment in immersive and non-immersive media, such as the fulldome and film screen. In total 30 undergraduate students were divided into two groups. They were asked to take stress-inducing tasks（e.g. noise）, finish a composition of 400 characters, and then took the attention function index（AFI） and sustained attention to response test（SART）. After watching the virtual natural scenes, both groups have restored attention. Besides, the fulldome group has more distinct effect of attention restoration, with more increase of subjective evaluation in AFI, more decrease of reaction time, and more increase of accuracy in SART. Compared with non-immersive media, immersive media, such as fulldome, has more significant effect of attention restoration. The applications of virtual natural environment in immersive media are worth further study.
