People become attached to places they spend time in. 3D maps allow visits in VR. Santoso & colleagues show that visiting distant locations makes even politically conservative participants care about real climate change news in that city, compared to static images.

5 robust, replicated, & meta-analyzed findings from 30 years of psych research in VR. Timeline of events in experiment history, recommendations for consumers & scholars new to the medium, and the DICE model on when to use (and not use) VR.

How do groups behave in VR?
Monique Santoso coded 9,000 speech acts to develop Virtual Reality Interaction Dynamics Scheme, 10 speech acts (e.g., disagreements, context-dependent commentary). Prior speech acts and current nonverbal behavior predict group action.

Panel of six figures featuring users engaging in VR activities in the presence and absence of virtual mirrors. These activities including getting acquainted with their avatar, socialization, and drawing.
A table featuring a non-exhaustive list of barriers to inclusive avatar embodiment in social VR. Categories in this list are embodied glitches and rendering issues, embodied design bias, disruptions to immersion, and survival tactics for embodied racial harassment.
New paper out! We explore avatar embodiment experiences of 52 Black users in social VR from ethnographic interviews + lab study. Findings unpack embodied consequences of racial representation in immersive VR and how users navigated challenges to expressing identity. vhil.stanford.edu/publications...

Go Gators! @ufjschool.bsky.social
In Social VR "two levels" of strangers can be present. Avatars from remote places a virtual room, and physical people you might not know in the room where you don a headset. Eugy Han & colleagues find that both physical and virtual strangers impact social behavior.
