7 mins confidence:  peer agreement (net): +1 immersion totale
Explanation: Le premier terme qui vient à l'idée serait "absorption", mais comme il est cité par la suite dans l'original, "immersion" semble une bonne solution. Vous pourrez ainsi les utiliser tous les deux : "l'immersion ou l'absorption totale dans une activité".

11 mins confidence:   investissement
Explanation: "Engrossment" et "absorption" sont assez synonimes, me semblent-ils, au point que je serai tenté de traduire le premier par "investissement", qui collerait ici avec le contexte, me semble-t-il :
"l'investissement total et l'absorption dans une activité"
