Virtual reality (VR), a computer-generated 3D environment, allows one to navigate and possibly interact, resulting in real-time simulation of one or more of the user\u2019s five senses (M. Gutierrez et al., 2008; Vince, 2004). Despite its history through past decades, this technology has quickly developed recently. Virtual tours and spaces have been widely used in the education, arts, and rehabilitation industries. According to research, it has significant effects on mindfulness (improving mood), cognitive development (better learning ability), and embodiment (relieving pain and medical conditions). This thesis aims to identify the conditions for Macao’s single-user experience to achieve mindfulness in virtual reality through immersion and interactivity.
\nWith their various definitions, this research uses the two spectrums on the levels of immersion and interactivity, conducts four experiment settings with Macao residents, and collects qualitative questionnaires and quantitative survey data. The four settings differ as they tackle different aspects: spiritual memory, historical memory, aesthetic appreciation, and meditation through concept. The analysed results were then evaluated to seek better conditions for the local community to achieve mindfulness by immersing themselves in virtual reality.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","class_list":["post-19672","tnc_col_19631_item","type-tnc_col_19631_item","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","tnc_tax_19912-global-studies","tnc_tax_19818-english","tnc_tax_19765-carlos-claires","tnc_tax_19716-faculty-of-art-and-humanities","tnc_tax_19664-immersion","tnc_tax_19664-single-user-experience","tnc_tax_19659-master-thesis","tnc_tax_19651-doctoral"],"taxonomy_info":[],"featured_image_src_large":false,"author_info":[],"comment_info":0,"featured_img":false,"coauthors":[],"author_meta":{"author_link":"https:\/\/library.usj.edu.mo\/zh\/author\/emilychan\/","display_name":"emily chan"},"relative_dates":{"created":"Posted 1 \u9031 ago","modified":"Updated 3 \u5c0f\u6642 ago"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Posted on 4 5 \u6708, 2026","modified":"Updated on 14 5 \u6708, 2026"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Posted on 4 5 \u6708, 2026 8:12 \u4e0b\u5348","modified":"Updated on 14 5 \u6708, 2026 5:56 \u4e0b\u5348"},"featured_img_caption":"","tax_additional":{"tnc_tax_19912":{"linked":["Global Studies<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Global Studies<\/span>"],"slug":"tnc_tax_19912","name":"Programme"},"tnc_tax_19818":{"linked":["English<\/a>"],"unlinked":["English<\/span>"],"slug":"tnc_tax_19818","name":"Language"},"tnc_tax_19765":{"linked":["Carlos Claires<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Carlos Claires<\/span>"],"slug":"tnc_tax_19765","name":"Supervisor(s)"},"tnc_tax_19716":{"linked":["Faculty of Art and Humanities<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Faculty of Art and Humanities<\/span>"],"slug":"tnc_tax_19716","name":"Faculty \/ Research Unit"},"tnc_tax_19664":{"linked":["immersion<\/a>","Single user experience<\/a>"],"unlinked":["immersion<\/span>","Single user experience<\/span>"],"slug":"tnc_tax_19664","name":"\u4e3b\u984c"},"tnc_tax_19659":{"linked":["Thesis & Dissertation<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Thesis & Dissertation<\/span>"],"slug":"tnc_tax_19659","name":"Document Type"},"tnc_tax_19651":{"linked":["Doctoral<\/a>"],"unlinked":["Doctoral<\/span>"],"slug":"tnc_tax_19651","name":"Degree Level"}},"series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.usj.edu.mo\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_19631_item\/19672","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.usj.edu.mo\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_19631_item"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.usj.edu.mo\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tnc_col_19631_item"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/library.usj.edu.mo\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19672"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/library.usj.edu.mo\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_19631_item\/19672\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":19752,"href":"https:\/\/library.usj.edu.mo\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tnc_col_19631_item\/19672\/revisions\/19752"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/library.usj.edu.mo\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19672"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
