Positive Youth Development in the Metaverse - Development of a Virtual Reality Afterschool Program for Middle Childhood Youth
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Virtual reality curriculum and No Virtual reality curriculum for Healthy and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 32 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This pilot study aims to leverage VR's capacity to easily replicate content and allow for multiple users to share the same space and engage in activities as if they're meeting in person. Integrating VR into afterschool programs will allow youth to receive more consistent programming content, even when they are unable to travel to the physical location for the in-person meetings.

Timeline
Interventions
Rather than rely on mere exposure to devices, participants in the treatment group will receive a curriculum that integrates the devices into traditional content delivered through the after school program.
Children will be able to use the same devices but will not have access to a curriculum that integrates the devices with traditional content delivered through the after school program.
