Exploration of Patterns in Emotional Response and Retrospective Cognitive Load during Interaction with a Virtual Product

Abstract

A cross-sectional study was conducted with 9 students in a classroom, allowing the identification of certain patterns during their interactions with a virtual product used as an educational tool. A correlation was observed among emotional response, cognitive load, and the dominant linguistic system in the virtual product. It was also noted that the prevalent use of a linguistic system can lead to a higher demand for resources for accurate spatial localization, contributing to the generation of high cognitive load. Additionally, these factors were observed to influence the perception of time in these studies. The utilization of self-report methods can offer valuable insights into the user's perspective, enhancing our understanding of how their individual interaction processes are constructed.
