The role of a virtual avatar in attention and memory tasks in Rett syndrome.
Fabio RA, Pergolizzi G, Nucita A, Iannizzotto G, Caprì T. Fabio RA, et al. BMC Neurol. 2021 Jun 14;21(1):223. doi: 10.1186/s12883-021-02212-w. BMC Neurol. 2021. PMID: 34126956 Free PMC article.
BACKGROUND: Since subjects with Rett syndrome (RTT) focus their attention mainly on the faces of people with whom they interact, in this study the role of a human-like smart interactive agent (an avatar) in enhancing cognitive processes is examined. More in depth, this stu …

Interacting with virtual objects via embodied avatar hands reduces pain intensity and diverts attention.
Hoffman HG. Hoffman HG. Sci Rep. 2021 May 21;11(1):10672. doi: 10.1038/s41598-021-89526-4. Sci Rep. 2021. PMID: 34021173 Free PMC article.
The current study introduces a new paradigm for exploring cognitive factors in pain. Interacting with virtual objects via embodied avatar hands increased the illusion of "being there" in the virtual world, increased VR analgesia for acute pain, and reduced ac …

Controlling the Sense of Embodiment for Virtual Avatar Applications: Methods and Empirical Study.
Kim CS, Jung M, Kim SY, Kim K. Kim CS, et al. JMIR Serious Games. 2020 Sep 22;8(3):e21879. doi: 10.2196/21879. JMIR Serious Games. 2020. PMID: 32960174 Free PMC article.
BACKGROUND: The sense of embodiment (SoE) is the feeling of one's own body, and research on the SoE extends from the rubber hand illusion to the full-body ownership illusion with a virtual avatar. OBJECTIVE: The key to utilizing a virtual avatar …

Exercising With a Six Pack in Virtual Reality: Examining the Proteus Effect of Avatar Body Shape and Sex on Self-Efficacy for Core-Muscle Exercise, Self-Concept of Body Shape, and Actual Physical Activity.
Lin JT, Wu DY, Yang JW. Lin JT, et al. Front Psychol. 2021 Oct 8;12:693543. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2021.693543. eCollection 2021. Front Psychol. 2021. PMID: 34690859 Free PMC article.
We theorized the Proteus effect as altered perceived self-concept and explored the association between virtual reality (VR) avatar manipulation and self-concept in the exercise context. ...Whereas the female participants who embodied avatars with a six pack a …
