Prothero, Jerrold D., Hoffman, Hunter G., Parker, Donald E., Furness, Thomas A. and Wells, Maxwell J. (1995): Foreground/Background Manipulations Affect Presence. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 39th Annual Meeting 1995. pp. 1410-1414.

“A possible relation between vection and presence is discussed. Two experiments examined the hypothesis that "presence" is enhanced by manipulations which facilitate interpreting visual scenes as "background." A total of 39 participants in two experiments engaged in a pursuit game while in a virtual visual environment generated by an HMD and rated their experience of "presence" on 5 questions. Experiment 1 compared two viewing conditions: visual scene masking -- at the eye and a paper mask mounted on the screen with the same 60{deg} FOV, and showed that presence was enhanced by eye masking relative to screen masking. Experiment 2 replicated these findings with a double-blind experimental design.”
