Effects of frame rate on vection and postural sway

•Effects of stereoscopic 3D movie parameters on vection and postural sway were investigated.•Perceived vection was found to increase with movie frame rate and camera motion speed.•Motion blur had no significant effects on vection.•Postural sway induced by vection also correlated with subjective ratings of vection.•Camera motion speed had significant effects on postural sway but movie frame rate did not.
