Abstract

The aim of the article is to identify — taking into account several dimensions described in the literature — experiences of people undertaking recreational physical activity (PA) in the form of cycling in natural conditions and riding a stationary bicycle in three settings: without any visualisations, in non-immersive visual reality (nIVR) and IVR. The empirical assessment of such experiences was carried out on a sample of 40 students, using a research questionnaire developed by the authors. Results of Friedman’s analysis of variance indicate that the conditions of cycling significantly affect cyclists’ experiences in the following systems: internal/external (χ2 = 61.42(40;3); p < 0.001), physical/emotional (χ2 = 11.90(40;3); p < 0.05), utilitarian/hedonistic (χ2 = 29.38(40;3); p < 0.001), passive/active (χ2 = 48.28(40;3); p < 0.001), immersion/absorption (χ2 = 11.71(40;3); p < 0.05), unpleasant/pleasant (χ2 = 77.14(40;3); p < 0.001), boring/stimulating (χ2 = 47.70(40;3); p < 0.001). The conditions in which the participants rode a bike significantly influenced their overall experience profile, resulting from the distribution of categories within the systems indicated above. However, similarities were found in two pairs of scenarios: (1) cycling in natural conditions and in IVR, and (2) riding a cycle ergometer without any visualisation and in nIVR.
