 Zusammenfassung: It is well known that eye height is an important visual cue in the perception of apparent sizes and affordances in virtual environments. However, the influence of visual eye height on egocentric distances in virtual environments has received less attention. To explore this influence, we conducted an experiment where we manipulated the virtual eye height of the user in a head-mounted display virtual environment. As a measurement we asked the participants to verbally judge egocentric distances and to give verbal estimates of the dimensions of the virtual room. In addition, we provided the participants a self-animated avatar to investigate if this virtual self-representation has an impact on the accuracy of verbal distance judgments, as recently evidenced for distance judgments accessed with an action-based measure. When controlled for ownership, the avatar had a significant influence on the verbal estimates of egocentric distances as found in previous research. Interestingly, we found that the manipulation of eye height has a significant influence on the verbal estimates of both egocentric distances and the dimensions of the room. We discuss the implications which these research results have on those interested in space perception in both immersive virtual environments and the real world.
