Abstract
The need for training in dangerous situations in all levels of an educational system through secure environments leads to the implementation of suitable Educational Virtual Environments (EVEs). Participants' sense of presence is a factor of major importance. This work is an evaluation of the factors that contribute to the sense of presence in an EVE in earthquake situations. We have studied the factors of mental transfer, the virtual environment's realism and the contribution of sensory stimuli. The results showed that the sense of presence depends on the attribution of virtual environment's content and on its enrichment with external sensory stimuli.
