situating the/one's self
See details about Robin Curtis at http://www.geisteswissenschaften.fu-berlin.de/mitarbeiter/dr... ("Zur Person"):
"Juli 2003:
Promotion in der Filmwissenschaft an der Freien Universität Berlin (summa cum laude) zum Thema "Situating the Self: Visceral Experience and Anxiety in the German Non-Fictional Autobiographical Film". Erstgutachterin: Prof. Dr. Gertrud Koch. Zweitgutachter: Prof. Dr. Hermann Kappelhoff."
That said, this might be a bit difficult to work into your sentence but should be a starting point nonetheless.

Note from asker:
| Author's suggestion: "Immersive states could thus be a product of one's degree of kinesthetic, proprioceptive, or imaginative engagement with fictional worlds or may come about as a result of a projection of the self into the specific time and space of those fictional worlds or even non-narrative matrixes such as computer games.” |

: In this context, I think it's "situating" rather than "positioning".

"Immersive Zustände können sich, so eine Definition von Robin Curtis und Christiane Voss, "kinästhetischen, propriozeptiven, imaginären sowie raum-zeitlichen Selbstverortungen in fiktionalen Welten oder auch nicht-narrativen Matrizen wie Computerspielen verdanken." (the "als" is superfluous here)
