摘要：

A suitable presentation of nursing home environments can assist older adults in efficiently understanding retirement living spaces and thereby making the right nursing home choice. This study focuses on exploring the potential of immersive virtual reality (IVR) applied to the display of nursing home environments. We compare IVR with photographs and 360 degrees panoramas to detect the differences in presence, spatial perception, and technology acceptance among older adults. Findings suggest that IVR provides a more robust sense of presence and more accurate spatial estimation and detail memorization compared to the other two formats, and that there is a positive response at the level of perceived usefulness and willingness to use. In this study, the usability and acceptability of IVR as a spatial presentation tool for nursing homes was effectively demonstrated.
