My Heart Will Go On: Implicitly Increasing Social Connectedness By Visualizing Asynchronous Playe...
summary
A VR escape‑room prototype visualizes asynchronous players’ ECG (collected in a pre‑study with a Polar H1 chest band) as either ECG lines or pulsating heart icons and is tested with N=34 in a within‑subject study. All but the single‑ECG condition significantly increase reported social connectedness; heart icons produce the strongest connectedness, understanding, and perceived support. Multiple ECGs raise connectedness but also distraction; completion times and hints show inconclusive effects. Three practical recommendations and dynamic visualization cues are offered.
