"Findings" need to be measured against the group of users expected to experience the VRs that are created. It's not enough to just cleanse the publications so they don't look like they were written by a particular group, the evaluation of effectiveness needs to include users from the expected population. I've heard that women have their right brain and left brain connections wired differently then men. It is quite possible that some of the direct sensory input devices will have a different effect on women. Jay Nelson (TRW) jay@wilbur.coyote.trw.com
