Zusammenfassung:This study explores the factors influencing turn-taking coordination in virtual reality (VR) environments, with a focus on identifying key interaction dynamics that affect the ease of gaining speaking opportunities. By analyzing VR interaction data through logistic regression and clustering, we identify significant variables impacting turn-taking success and categorize typical interaction states that present unique coordination challenges. The findings reveal that features related to interaction proactivity, individual status, and communication quality significantly impact turn-taking outcomes. Furthermore, clustering analysis identifies five primary interaction contexts: high competition, intense interaction, prolonged single turn, high-status role, and low activity, each with unique turn-taking coordination requirements. This work provides insights into enhancing turn-taking support systems in VR, emphasizing contextually adaptive feedback to reduce speaking overlap and turn-taking failures, thereby improving overall interaction flow in immersive environments.
