Abstract
En 中文
• Large-scale cross-societal study with 582 young adults from Germany and the U.S. • VR remains limited despite widespread gaming among young participants. • Gender differences – not culture – shape emotional and immersive avatar engagement. • Qualitative insights reveal emotional strain from deep virtual world immersion. • Findings suggest the need for inclusive and emotionally supportive VR design.
