An experiment on a nonclinical sample to investigate influences of virtual reality (VR) on dissociation, mindfulness, and self-efficacy is reported. The participants were immersed for 20 minutes with a VR system in a large virtual apartment and have been charged to look around and find a set of objects previously observed on pictures. Questionnaires pre- and postimmersion were administered to measure the levels of such psychological constructs; cybersickness was assessed as well. Results showed an upward trend in dissociation and a significant increase of mindfulness after immersion in the VR environment. No influences on self-efficacy were found. Findings are discussed with reference to past studies, where a different picture emerged, by considering possible differences due to changes in technology and context.

虚拟现实体验对分离、正念和自我效能的影响

报告了一项非临床样本实验，以研究虚拟现实 (VR) 对分离、正念和自我效能的影响。参与者在大型虚拟公寓中使用 VR 系统沉浸 20 分钟，并被要求环顾四周并找到之前在图片上观察到的一组物体。在沉浸前和沉浸后进行问卷调查，以测量这种心理结构的水平；也对网络病进行了评估。结果显示，沉浸在 VR 环境中后，分离度呈上升趋势，正念显着增加。没有发现对自我效能的影响。通过考虑由于技术和环境的变化可能导致的差异，参考过去的研究讨论了结果，其中出现了不同的图景。
