In recent years, new developments have led to an increasing number of virtual reality (VR)-based experiments, but little is known about their validity compared to real-world experiments. To this end, an experiment was carried out which compares responses given in a real-world environment to responses given in a VR environment. In the experiment, thirty participants rated the overall listening experience of music excerpts while sitting in a cinema and a listening booth being in a real-world environment and in a VR environment. In addition, the VR system that was used to carry out the sessions in the VR environment is presented in detail. Results indicate that there are only minor statistically significant differences between the two environments when the overall listening experience is rated. Furthermore, in the real-world environment, the ratings given in the listening booth were slightly higher than in the cinema.

“…Prior studies note that immersive VR learning environment also enhances situated learning through simulation of realistic contexts and providing contextualized learning activities [46][47] [48], thus improving performance transfer from learning environment to the real-world setting [49] [50]. Nowadays flight simulators are used widely both for entertainment and training purposes, as they provide realistic environments to the extent that flight training hours can be replaced by corresponding simulator hours [51].…”

This paper presents a robust literature review on the subject of Virtual Reality and its use in training and educational systems. Firstly, the beginnings of Virtual Reality are presented, then, advantages and disadvantages of virtual reality environments are described. Various characteristics of Virtual Reality are highlighted, which have positive or negative influence on learning or training ability of individuals. It is shown how various organizations could benefit from using virtual reality in their daily activities. Such aspect as sense of presence is also described, which has tremendous effect on how subjects perceive information in virtual world.

“…Here Petraglia, in what he called "authenticity paradox", argues against such a conception by emphasizing the fact that the differences in the mental representations of tasks in the learning and target situations have almost always been ignored (1998). Representation is "re-experiencing the situation in the imagination" which is based on the "affordances (attributes of the supporting features) and the constraints (the structure imposed by the setting [that] may facilitate task progress)" (Kennewell, et al, 2000;Kennewell, 2001;Bossard et al, 2008). According to Kennewell, for the learning tasks and situations to be authentic, both affordances and the constraints embodied in those settings should engage the learners in the multiple representations which are inherent in the human interactions with the environment.…”
