The effect of internal and external fields of view on visually induced motion sickness
Abstract
Field of view (FOV) is said to affect visually induced motion sickness. FOV, however, is characterized by an internal setting used by the graphics generator (iFOV) and an external factor determined by screen size and viewing distance (eFOV). We hypothesized that especially the incongruence between iFOV and eFOV would lead to sickness. To that end we used a computer game environment with different iFOV and eFOV settings, and found the opposite effect. We speculate that the relative large differences between iFOV and eFOV used in this experiment caused the discrepancy, as may be explained by assuming an observer model controlling body motion.

Standardized subjective rating questionnaires for VIMS exist, including the Simulator Sickness Questionnaire, Fast Motion Sickness Scale, and Misery Scale.
“Compared to vection research, standardized subjective rating questionnaires for VIMS do exist, including the prominent Simulator Sickness Questionnaire (Kennedy et al., 1993), the Fast Motion Sickness Scale (Keshavarz and Hecht, 2011b), or the Misery Scale (Bos et al., 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
