OA期刊: Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
开放获取期刊 (Open Access, OA)现在很流行,可能也是今后期刊的一个发展方向吧。今天又发现一个Frontiers系列的开放获取期刊,其中包括 Frontiers in Human Neuroscience 。今年3月份才开始出文章,不过文章看起来都很好,可能会成为一个牛刊。下面贴两个很有意思的研究: Baumgartner T, Speck D, Wettstein D, Masnari O, Beeli G and Jäncke L (2008) Feeling present in arousing virtual reality worlds: prefrontal brain regions differentially orchestrate presence experience in adults and children. Front. Hum. Neurosci. (2008) 2:8. doi:10.3389/neuro.09.008.2008 Virtual reality (VR) is a powerful tool for simulating aspects of the real world. The success of VR is thought to depend on its ability to evoke a sense of "being there", that is, the feeling of "Presence". In view of the rapid progress in the development of increasingly more sophisticated virtual environments (VE), the importance of understanding the neural underpinnings of presence is growing.
