Comment l'effet Protéus modifie-t-il notre comportement ?

Choses à Savoir

Play Episode Listen Later Oct 9, 2024 1:39


L'effet Protéus est un phénomène psychologique observé dans le contexte de la réalité virtuelle, où le comportement d'une personne peut être influencé par les caractéristiques de son avatar. Cet effet tire son nom de Protéus, une divinité grecque capable de changer de forme, symbolisant ainsi la manière dont les gens adaptent leur comportement en fonction de l'apparence virtuelle qu'ils adoptent. Explication de l'effet Protéus : 1. Origine du concept : - L'effet Protéus a été décrit pour la première fois par les chercheurs Nick Yee et Jeremy Bailenson de l'université Stanford en juin 2007. Ils ont découvert que les utilisateurs de mondes virtuels ou de jeux vidéo modifient leur comportement selon l'apparence de leur avatar, comme la taille, l'attractivité ou même le style vestimentaire. 2. Comment l'effet fonctionne : - L'apparence et les caractéristiques d'un avatar influencent les perceptions et les actions de l'utilisateur. Par exemple, une personne avec un avatar plus grand et plus imposant peut se sentir et se comporter de manière plus assertive ou confiante, même en dehors du monde virtuel. De même, un avatar attractif peut amener une personne à être plus sociable et positive dans ses interactions. 3. Implications psychologiques : - L'effet Protéus montre comment l'identité virtuelle peut affecter l'identité réelle. Cette influence se manifeste dans des contextes variés, comme la communication en ligne, le travail collaboratif virtuel, ou même les thérapies de réalité virtuelle. - Ce phénomène suggère que l'adoption d'un avatar avec des traits positifs pourrait potentiellement améliorer l'estime de soi et les interactions sociales des utilisateurs, tandis que des avatars aux traits négatifs pourraient entraîner des comportements plus agressifs ou réservés. 4. Applications et recherches : - L'effet Protéus est étudié dans les domaines de la psychologie, des jeux vidéo, des réseaux sociaux, et des environnements virtuels professionnels. Il a des implications pour le développement de technologies immersives, la conception d'expériences de réalité virtuelle et augmentée, et même dans la compréhension de l'impact des identités numériques sur la vie réelle. En résumé, l'effet Protéus décrit comment les caractéristiques d'un avatar peuvent influencer le comportement et la psychologie d'un individu, soulignant l'impact profond des identités virtuelles sur le monde réel.

Ever wondered how one gets into the field of video game psychology? Is there even such a field, really? In many ways Dr. Nick Yee is the answer to both those questions. He has a background in psychology and experimental design and he has published several articles in refereed scientific journals. He has also written a book about the psychology behind how video game avatars shape our behaviors. All along the way, Yee has managed to blend these interests in psychology with his expertise in computer science and a love of video games to do some pretty interesting things. In many ways he is a great example of how one can merge the worlds of psychology and video games. In this podcast episode Yee will explain how he turned that combination of interests into a job with big time game publisher Ubisoft, where he and longtime research partner Nic Ducheneaut applied social science theory and research methods to game design. Now they are setting out on their own venture to do the same for others in the gaming industry, and Yee will tell us all about it. Yee and I also talk extensively about how gaming companies are using data to track every little thing players are doing and how that information can be used to make games better. More to the point, we talk about privacy, ethics, and what role psychologists can (and should) play in this era of big data. How often are their skills and aptidutes are being put to good use in the gaming industry? Just how much does the training psychologists receive contribute to big game data analytics?Hope you all enjoy this one.

The Social Network Show welcomes Dr. Nick Yee to the May 19, 2014 episode. If you are an online gamer, you will find this show very interesting. Dr. Yee has done a tremendous amount of research on online gaming and gamers and shares some of the interesting behavior that he has found in online gamers. If you want to read more on his recent research, take a look at a recent article in Slate, "Virtual Worlds Are Real: Avatars have consequences offline. No wonder U.S. intelligence agencies are looking into them". For more than a decade, Dr. Nick Yee has studied online games and virtual worlds using a wide range of social science methods. His survey study of over 50,000 online gamers, the Daedalus Project, examined who these gamers are and why they play these games. At Stanford University and the Palo Alto Research Center, he used psychology experiments and large-scale data analysis to explore how our virtual and offline selves are related. Dr. Yee has over 40 peer-reviewed publications on virtual worlds and online games, and his work has been mentioned in the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and CNN International among other media outlets. He is the author of The Proteus Paradox: How Online Games and Virtual Worlds Change Us--And How They Don't and is currently a senior research scientist in Ubisoft's gamer behavior research group.

The image of online gaming in popular culture is that of an addictive pastime, mired in escapism. And the denizens of virtual worlds are thought to be mostly socially awkward teenaged boys. In his new book The Proteus Paradox: How Online Games and Virtual Worlds Change Us-and How They Don’t (Yale University Press, 2014), Nick Yee asserts that the common stereotypes of gaming and gamers are not, and have never been, based in fact. Massively multiplayer online role-playing games, or MMORPGs as they are called, attract a diverse community of users with a range of ages, economic statuses, and motivations for playing. Basing his conclusions on his own research into online gaming and virtual worlds, Yee finds that far from creating separate worlds with new rules for its member, MMORPGs reinforce the social norms from offline society.
