This is a Small Grant for Exploratory Research (SGER). The purpose of the project is to provide an empirical assessment of the value of immersive virtual environments as a methodological tool in social psychology. Virtual environment technology has advanced to the point where freely-mobile individuals can be placed into contexts that simulate physical and social environments. While this technology has broad commercial relevance, it also has important potential for the social and behavioral sciences. This potential has not received much scientific or scholarly study, which is the purpose of this exploratory investigation.

这是一个探索性研究的小补助金（SGER）。该项目的目的是提供沉浸式虚拟环境作为社会心理学方法工具的价值的实证评估。虚拟环境技术已经发展到可以将自由移动的个人置于模拟物理和社会环境的环境中的程度。虽然这项技术具有广泛的商业意义，但它在社会和行为科学方面也具有重要的潜力。这一潜力尚未得到太多的科学或学术研究，这正是本次探索性调查的目的。
