Shooter Bias and Socioeconomic Status in Virtual Reality

摘要

This poster details an ongoing experiment aiming to test the prevalence of shooter bias in virtual reality. Further, we examine the interaction between shooter bias and perceived socioeconomic status. Even though shooter bias is a well-documented topic in psychology research, little experimentation has used virtual reality, instead opting for unrealistic two-dimensional simulations. This study will yield new insight into shooter bias, especially concerning virtual reality as a tool for use in future work, and will provide new understanding about the relationship between socioeconomic status and shooter bias.
