“…A person in flow can display maximum capacity with greate but effortless attention (Csikszentmihalyi & Nakamura, 2010). Sanjamsai and Phukao (2018) found out that when a player was deeply immersed in a game, it could lead to a loss of consciousness and low attention to surroundings and responsibilities. Moreover, they considered low attention and loss of consciousness as drawbacks which could be harmful to people's life.…”

Virtual reality is transforming the travel industry as both enhancement and replacement of experiences. The purpose of this study is to examine how travelers achieve flow states in VR experiences. Based on the flow theory, the study combines physiological measures with self-reported survey measures to understand people's flow experiences. A laboratory experiment was conducted with 9D virtual reality motion theater simulator and iMEC 12 electrocardiogram monitor equipment. The contradictory results between the two measures indicate that travelers' physiological reactions may not match their psychological perceptions. Compared to control, arousal has a stronger role in mediating travelers' flow states.

“…In addition, previous studies indicate that heavy behaviors and loss of self-regulation have a beneficial impact on the addiction to the online game [46]. For instance, from a games perspective, too much involvement in flow through being overabsorbed and involved can damage children as they may obsess the state of pleasure but ignore self-care and interpersonal relations [47]: H1: individuals' enriched flow experience in VR encourages consumers to have VR games addictive behavior H2: individuals' enriched flow experience in VR encourages consumers to have a behavioral desire to use VR games 3.2. Behavioral Desire.…”

Virtual Reality games create an interactive platform for gaming and education for young people. While some longitudinal study has studied the beneficial effects of VR games on learning, the problematic use of VR games by a significant number of learners has become increasingly serious. The current study investigated the mediating effect of behavioral desire and moderation of cyber aggression on consumers’ VAD, which contributes to behavioral and psychological urge to use VR games. Data are from 367 VR games users collected. Findings suggest that behavioral desire influences addictive behavior in the presence of a positive flow experience. Furthermore, theoretical and practical implications in the context of VR-based games are also discussed in this current research.

“…According to the theory, flow experience leads to complete engagement in an activity, characterized by concentration and enjoyment (Ghani & Deshpande, 1994). Flow experience has been previously studied in the context of online games (Su et al, 2019;Sanjamsai & Phukao, 2018), social media platforms (Hung, Tsai & Chou, 2016) and instant messaging services (Lu, Zhou, & Wang, 2009), indicating that flow experience may be associated with attitude and thereby the intention to use particular system (Hung et al, 2016;Chen & Lin, 2018). Sanjamsai and Phukao (2018), discusses flow as an optimal state where the person is fully immersed in an activity.…”

Rise of internet and penetration of smartphones have made digital content accessible though Entertainment Streaming Apps (ESA). With the flexibility of time and place, ESA platforms are changing the dynamics of entertainment consumption. The current study explored the determinants of actual usage of ESA using the theory of planned behavior, flow theory and factors affecting entertainment related technology adoption including engagement, content, entertainment value, convenience value and monetary value. Data is collected through an online survey from 215 Indian ESA users and the proposed framework is empirically tested using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings of the study contribute to the growing body of literature on streaming apps adoption and usage by expanding the understanding of the factors that explain its usage behavior.
