Brain Stimuli Positive When it Comes To VR Porn – Study

Virtual Reality creates lots of different stimuli on our brains that we’re not used to. After all, it’s not exactly normal to be wearing a headset over your eyes that creates a fully immersive experience. Have you ever wondered what this type of technology might do to our brains?

BadoinkVR and Neurons partnered on what appears to be the study to tackle the psychological effects of VR porn. BadoinkVR is one of the most popular virtual reality porn companies in the world. Neurons is a top psychological study conductor that has worked with the likes of Facebook.

More From The Daily Dot:

The details and results of the study are disclosed in a story produced by the Daily Dot, an internet news site with a lot of experience in NSFW topics. All subjects of the study were taken to a private room and told to watch an eight-minute VR porn video. The subjects brain waves were measured by an electroencephalogram (EGG). The viewers were also instructed not to masturbate. The subjects also watched the same video in regular 2D.

In the study, the subjects’ cognitive load, arousal, and motivation were measured throughout the course of the porn scenes. As different acts take place, inferences can be made about their effects on cognitive function.

One of the most interesting findings in the article is that choking turns us off. That prototypical “deep throat” gave made most male subjects recoil a bit.
