dc.description.abstractIn this paper we summarize, evaluate, and discuss the effect of movement patterns in a spatial sound space on the perceived amount of simulator sickness, the pleasantness of the experience, and the perceived workload. During our user study nearly 48 percent of all participants showed mild to moderate symptoms of simulator sickness, with a trend towards stronger symptoms for those experiencing left to right movements. We found evidence for predictable left to right movements leading to a perceived unpleasantness that is significantly higher than for unpredictable or no movement at all. However none of the movement patterns had a noticable effect on the perceived cognitive load for simple tasks. We also found some differences in the perception of the sound space between men and women. Women tended to have a stronger dislike for the sound space and found the task to be more difficult.
