TL;DR
The study shows that subtle delays in avatar head movements can influence user preferences in virtual environments.
Contribution
The paper introduces a virtual avatar system that uses imperceptible motion delay to manipulate attention and preference formation.
Findings
Operators prefer objects presented without motion delay.
Motion delay negatively affects preference formation in virtual environments.
Subtle avatar manipulations raise ethical and security concerns.
Abstract
This study investigated the effect of imperceptible motion delay in avatar head movements on preference formation among operators. Despite the growing importance of avatars in various applications, there is a notable lack of research on how subtle manipulations of avatar movements influence operator cognition and decision-making. By aligning the head and gaze directions, we developed a virtual avatar system designed to subtly manipulate the operator’s attention toward specific objects using motion delay. The experimental results revealed that operators tend to prefer objects presented without motion delay, suggesting a negative effect of motion delay on preference formation. These findings highlight motion delay as a significant factor in directing attention and shaping preferences in virtual environments, which have implications for enhancing user experience and optimizing…
