According to the first visited room in the VE, Staircase A was preferred more than Staircase C since the participants started their virtual navigation from Room 1 and finished at Room 3. This indicated that the participants utilized the staircase that they saw first while entering Room 1 in the VE; in other words, the ‘view direction’ attribute was influential in the staircase preference. With respect to the last visited room, Staircase C was utilized more than Staircase A for descending since the participants preferred the closest staircase to the last visited room. As a result, ‘distance’ was a determining attribute for staircase preference. Participants utilized the staircases that were situated on the left side of their view directions. In addition, the majority of the female participants preferred the staircase that was located on the right side of the last visited room on the first floor.
