Abstract

The metaverse offers new technological possibilities for conducting 3D immersive meetings with head-mounted displays that can enrich virtual teamwork. To conceptualize this new interaction space, we synthesize interdisciplinary findings from human-computer interaction literature, group research, and meeting science. We develop a conceptual framework of 3D immersive group meetings that integrates technological design characteristics, subjective attendee experiences, mediating mechanisms, and meeting outcomes. As a first empirical glimpse into this framework, we include a pilot study of group member’s self-reported experiences and observed group dynamics in the metaverse. Building on our framework and first empirical insights, we discuss implications for future investigations of group dynamics in the metaverse.
元宇宙中的群体动力学:概念框架和初步经验启示
元宇宙为利用头戴式显示器举行三维沉浸式会议提供了新的技术可能性,可以丰富虚拟团队合作。为了概念化这一新的交互空间,我们综合了人机交互文献、小组研究和会议科学的跨学科研究成果。我们建立了一个三维沉浸式小组会议的概念框架,将技术设计特点、与会者的主观体验、中介机制和会议结果融为一体。作为对这一框架的首次实证探索,我们对小组成员的自我报告体验和观察到的元宇宙中的小组动态进行了试点研究。基于我们的框架和首次实证洞察,我们讨论了未来研究元宇宙中的群体动力的意义。
