Duration Estimation

From EuroVR Knowledge Base

Description

Duration estimation, or the human ability to indicate how much time has elapsed, is proposed as a corroborative measure of presence. Participants are asked to estimate the duration of the time interval they needed to complete tasks (in minutes and seconds). They are also asked to judge on a 6-point scale whether they think they completed the tasks in a short time.
