Outline
PARADIGM

RECRUITMENT
Group | Recruited | Excluded |
---|---|---|
Control | 11 | 2 CS* + 1 Other** |
Peripheral | 8 | 0 |
Central | 9 | 1 CS* |
* : Cybersickness
** : Escaped
- Only one men (?) participated
- No female participant in central group.
Age Range : 18-30 years
HYPOTHESES
- Participants with peripheral scotoma less interaction among buildings (GROUP)
- Short fixation time in central and peripheral (GROUP)
- An effect of restricted area (REGION)

GROUP : control - peripheral - central
REGION : inside - outside
DATA TABLE lAYOUT
Participant ID | Building ID | Fixation (s) |
---|---|---|
4001 | Building_01 | 0.4 |
4001 | Building_04 | 0.5 |
4001 | Building_01 | 0.7 |
... | ... | ... |
4004 | Building_01 | 0.8 |
4004 | Building_12 | 0.9 |
... | ... | ... |
- Order matters for graph
- <Participant, Building> pairs -- multiple fixations-- not unique!

MULTICOLLINEARITY DETECTED!
NO RESULTS!
EFFECTS OF SIMULATION AND GLAUCOMA
- Graph measures, i.e. node degree, similar across groups
- Increased dwell time in peripheral simulation
- Due to saccade initiation for the next target
- Same analyses not applied to glaucoma data
- Multicollinearity between building and participant variance in glaucoma data
- The effects not additive rather multiplicative
- Might be something relevant to landmarks
- Region effect on dwell-time
- shorter look to buildings outside
