Project: |
Learning to Perform in a Virtual Environment |
Description: |
In virtual environments people greatly misperceive
the locations of objects. This study is concerned with how people
learn to behave adaptively in spite of this misperception. We measure
the initial error and then examine to course of learning when error
feedback is provided. The goal is to determine what is learned and
how it is learned. |
Duties: |
Independent research students (199) will first be subjects in an
experiment and then will conduct the experiment with other subjects.
They will analyze and interpret the data in collaboration with the
professor. |
Additional Requirements: |
3.0 grade point average, at least one course in perception, and
basic computer skills. |
