Using VR for Science Communication: Presence, Message Perception, and Pro-Environmental Effects
This research investigates the effectiveness of virtual reality (VR) as a science communication tool to promote pro-environmental change. A laboratory experiment ( N = 70) was conducted to examine the short-term effects of VR immersive video, in comparison with flat screen video, on level of presence, message perception, and cognition. Viewing the VR video produced greater levels of presence, which was associated with increased positive perceptions of the video, perceived importance of water issues, and pro-environmental attitudes, and behavioral intentions. Implications are discussed in terms of how immersive VR can be used as science communication tool.
期刊介绍:
Science Communication is a prestigious journal that focuses on communication research. It is recognized globally for publishing top-quality manuscripts that demonstrate excellent theoretical frameworks and robust methodology. Our journal embraces a broad definition of science, encompassing not only the natural and physical sciences but also social science, technology, environment, engineering, and health. Regardless of the scientific area, effective communication is always the focal point of our investigations.
Apart from theoretical and methodological rigor, we place great emphasis on the practical implications of scientific communication. Therefore, we expect all submitted manuscripts to address the real-world applications and significance of their research, alongside theoretical considerations.
In summary, Science Communication is an internationally renowned journal dedicated to bridging the gap between science and society. By promoting effective communication in various scientific domains, we strive to engage readers with intriguing research that has tangible implications for the world around us.
