The current study investigated the relationship between the point-of-view (POV) of a 360-degree film for Head Mounted Displays and the level of presence and enjoyment. We created two conditions with a 360-degree movie, with different POVs (actor and observer). Participants from the actor condition scored significantly higher on Spatial Presence compared to participants from the observer condition. However, the expected differences in enjoyment and other subscales of presence between the two conditions were not found. Finally, we provide a recommendation on what POV (actor or observer) is the most presence and enjoyment enhancing.

Much of the discussion about Wikipedia, both in the news and in more scholarly circles, still largely reflects the concerns found in populist perspectives. What’s missing is an informed, radical critique from the inside. The Critical Point of View (CPOV) research initiative, whose material is brought together in this reader, poses different questions than those we have thus far encountered.
