Gender differences in cybersickness: Clarifying confusion and identifying paths forward

Cybersickness is a harrier to widespread adoption of virtual reality (VR). We summarize the literature and conclude that women experience more cybersickness than do men, but that the size of the gender effect is modest, We present a mediation and moderation framework for organizing existing research and proposing new questions about gender and cybersickness. A mediator causally connects gender and cybersickness, and a moderator changes the magnitude of the gender difference in cybersickness.
