Аннотация:We investigated the gender differences of participant’s behavior during the interaction with avatars of different ethnic appearance. Forty participants (19 males and 21 females aged 18–23 years) were tested. Virtual scenes were presented using the CAVE virtual reality system. Behavioral characteristics were analyzed including average minimal and maximal interpersonal distances. The results showed the compensation effects in interpersonal distances: shorter – with avatars which appearance represented own subject’s ethnic groups and longer – with avatars of other ethnic appearance. It was also found that questionnaire’s scores were in good agreement with behavioral characteristics. The gender differences of walking strategy while performing the task were revealed. The obtained results may be useful for developing methods of testing the behavioral patterns during interactions with virtual partners.
