In the study, we checked: 1) how the simulator test conditions affect the severity of simulator sickness symptoms; 2) how the severity of simulator sickness symptoms changes over time; and 3) whether the conditions of the simulator test affect the severity of these symptoms in different ways, depending on the time that has elapsed since the performance of the task in the simulator. We studied 12 men aged 24-33 years (M = 28.8, SD = 3.26) using a truck simulator. The SSQ questionnaire was used to assess the severity of the symptoms of simulator sickness. Each of the subjects performed three 30-minute tasks running along the same route in a driving simulator. Each of these tasks was carried out in a different simulator configuration: A) fixed base platform with poor visibility; B) fixed base platform with good visibility; and C) motion base platform with good visibility. The measurement of the severity of the simulator sickness symptoms took place in five consecutive intervals. The results of the analysis showed that the simulator test conditions affect in different ways the severity of the simulator sickness symptoms, depending on the time which has elapsed since performing the task on the simulator. The simulator sickness symptoms persisted at the highest level for the test conditions involving the motion base platform. Also, when performing the tasks on the motion base platform, the severity of the simulator sickness symptoms varied depending on the time that had elapsed since performing the task. Specifically, the addition of motion to the simulation increased the oculomotor and disorientation symptoms reported as well as the duration of the after-effects.
在研究中，我们检查了：1）模拟器测试条件如何影响模拟器晕动病症状的严重程度；2）模拟器晕动病症状的严重程度随时间的变化；3）模拟器测试条件是否以不同的方式影响这些症状的严重程度，具体取决于自模拟器中执行任务以来所经过的时间。我们使用卡车模拟器研究了 12 名年龄在 24-33 岁的男性（M=28.8，SD=3.26）。使用 SSQ 问卷评估模拟器晕动病症状的严重程度。每个受试者都在驾驶模拟器中沿着相同路线执行三个 30 分钟的任务。这些任务中的每一个都是在不同的模拟器配置下执行的：A）固定底座平台，可视性差；B）固定底座平台，可视性好；C）运动底座平台，可视性好。在五个连续的间隔内测量模拟器晕动病症状的严重程度。分析结果表明，模拟器测试条件根据自模拟器中执行任务以来所经过的时间，以不同的方式影响模拟器晕动病症状的严重程度。涉及运动底座平台的测试条件下，模拟器晕动病症状持续处于最高水平。此外，当在运动底座平台上执行任务时，模拟器晕动病症状的严重程度会根据自执行任务以来所经过的时间而变化。具体来说，模拟运动的增加增加了眼球运动和定向障碍症状以及后效的持续时间。
