Abstract

With the development of information technology, many well-known art museums and galleries have adopted metaverse exhibitions for online display and dissemination of art information, building sustainable ways to participate in and experience art. Users can access the metaverse exhibition platform through the internet and enjoy classic artworks in the virtual space, which has gained many forms of artistic perception and improved physical and mental health. Currently, the factors affecting user use intentions in existing metaverse exhibition studies still need to be clarified and need to be studied in depth. This paper explores the relationship between users’ entertainment experience, educational experience, presence, affective responses, and use intention through a survey of 536 users who had experienced a metaverse exhibition. The research results show that users’ use intentions are influenced by entertainment experiences and educational experiences. Presence mediates between entertainment experiences and educational experiences on use intention. Affective responses play a moderating role between the educational experience and use intention. This study provides a relevant theoretical basis for sustainable urban and socio-economic development from a digital perspective. At the same time, this study enables the metaverse exhibition platform to design and create valuable and healthy artistic content with higher quality. The emotional state of the user’s experience was better attended to so that mental health was enhanced and managed. Furthermore, it also provided a guidance program for the development of educational experience and economic sustainability of the exhibition industry.
