Measuring Presence In A Police Use Of Force Simulation, Dharmesh Rajendra Desai
Measuring Presence In A Police Use Of Force Simulation, Dharmesh Rajendra Desai
University of New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
We have designed a simulation that can be used to train police officers. Digital simulations are more cost-effective than a human role play. Use of force decisions are complex and made quickly, so there is a need for better training and innovative methods. Using this simulation, we are measuring the degree of presence that a human experience in a virtual environment. More presence implies better training. Participants are divided into two groups in which one group performs the experiment using a screen, keyboard, and mouse, and another uses virtual reality controls. In this experiment, we use subjective measurements and physiological …
