#43. Subjective Fear and The Experience of Presence - Dr. Christopher Maymon

  • Summary

  • Dr. Chris Maymon, of Victoria University of Wellington, talks to us about his research on the experience of being Present. Him and his team use virtual reality to test the causal role of subjective and physiological components of fear in generating presence. Dr. Maymon goes through the background of understanding being present as a concept and how it is measured, the use of virtual reality in his experiments and some of the interesting findings including how your subjective fear and not your heart rate and other physiological measures impact our experience of presence.
