abstract = {Exposure to sexual contexts by means of immersive, extended reality technologies, offer an opportunity to both: better understand sexual responding, and in turn, offers insights as to how the same technology could help in treating sexual disorders. The present papers reports on the ability of behavioural (i.e., oculometry) and physiological (i.e., electroencephalography and vaginal plethysmography) to conjointly predict subjective sexual feelings (i.e., subjective sexual presence), this, using a sample of 12 heterosexual cisgendered women. Measurements pertained to the participants living a sexual immersion (via a virtual reality headset) with an opposite sex virtual character engaging in sexually suggestive behaviour. Results suggest that all the tested behavioural and physiological measurements could play a role in the shaping of sexual presence. Results are discussed with therapeutic learning processes considerations in mind. Copyright © 2024 by SCITEPRESS – Science and Technology Publications, Lda.},

abstract = {The increasing use of immersive technologies for sexual purposes raises questions about their capacity to enhance a unique aspect of presence-Sexual Presence (SP). Investigating this phenomenon hinges on our ability to measure it accurately. This paper improves our understanding of SP by identifying potential quantitative electroencephalography variables associated with SP. Twelve heterosexual cisgender males were exposed to virtual scenarios featuring sexual content performed by a Virtual Character (VC). After viewing, participants completed a Sexual Presence questionnaire. Correlations were observed between self-reported SP and the alpha band activity in the frontal and parietal regions. © 2024 IEEE.},
