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

  1. Participants with peripheral scotoma less interaction among buildings (GROUP)
  2. Short fixation time in central and peripheral (GROUP)
  3. 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
