“Capture Your Experience at This Moment”: Collecting Concurrent User Experience Data in Immersive Virtual Environment

Environmental User Experience (UX) data collection is essential for user research, enabling evidence-based design decisions. However, traditional retrospective methods like micro-phenomenological interviews suffer from recall inaccuracies and memory distortions. Concurrent UX data collection methods with environmental…

N-ary Gaussian Model Modeling Pointing Uncertainty Across Task Scenarios Using an Automated Multi-Gaussian Modeling Pipeline

This paper presents an N-ary Gaussian Model for predicting endpoint distributions in pointing tasks across task scenarios. Built on the foundational principles of the Ternary Gaussian model series, our model framework allows researchers to define parameter constraints and automatically refine model combinations, elimi…

Modeling Locomotion with Body Angular Movements in Virtual Reality

This study proposes a time prediction model for locomotion along a polyline path with body angular movements in Virtual Reality (VR). We divide such locomotion into two components: navigating in multiple line-segment paths and turning at line-segment intersections. In the first component, locomotion in each line-segme…

The Fidelity-based Presence Scale (FPS): Modeling the Effects of Fidelity on Sense of Presence

Within the virtual reality (VR) research community, there have been several efforts to develop questionnaires with the aim of better understanding the sense of presence. Despite having numerous surveys, the community does not have a questionnaire that informs which components of a VR application contributed to the sen…

Better, Funner, Stronger: A Gameful Approach to Nudge People into Making Less Predictable Graphical Password Choices

Graphical user authentication (GUA) is a common alternative to text-based user authentication, where people are required to draw graphical passwords on background images. Such schemes are theoretically considered remarkably secure because they offer a large password space. However, people tend to create their passwor…

Distractor Effects on Crossing-Based Interaction

Task-irrelevant distractors affect visuo-motor control for target acquisition and studying such effects has already received much attention in human-computer interaction. However, there has been little research into distractor effects on crossing-based interaction. We thus conducted an empirical study on pen-based int…

Modeling the Endpoint Uncertainty in Crossing-based Moving Target Selection

Modeling the endpoint uncertainty of moving target selection with crossing is essential to understand factors such as speed-accuracy trade-off and interaction efficiency in crossing-based user interfaces with dynamic contents. However, there have been few studies looking into this research topic in the HCI field. This…

Interrogating Social Virtual Reality as a Communication Medium for Older Adults

A growing body of research is examining the way that virtual reality (VR) technology might enrich the lives of older adults. However, no studies have yet examined how this technology–combining head mounted displays, motion tracking, avatars, and virtual environments–might contribute to older adult wellbeing by facilit…
