Abstract

The time that people perceive is called "psychological time" and is classified as "time perception" when the time range is less than 5 s and "time estimation" when the time range is 5 s or more. It is known that "psychological time" is perceived longer by fear, but there is little research on each effect of "time perception" and "time estimation" evoked by fear. Therefore, using VR technology that can give a sense of immersion as users really do, we present VR contents that evoke strong fear safely to users both in the "time perception" and "time estimation" ranges and investigate the differences between the effects of "time perception" and "time estimation" evoked by fear.
