Interventions

Virtual Reality Groupother

In the study, a 400-gram virtual reality (VR) headset with an anti-reflective lens system was used, compatible with all earphones with screens ranging from 4.5 to 7.0 inches. The virtual reality (VR) headset, which was lightweight enough for children to wear, was supported on three sides to fit securely on the children's heads and was disinfected after each use. For the experimental group, the compartment at the front of the virtual reality (VR) headset was removed. The earphone was placed into the removed compartment, which was then reinserted. Subsequently, the YouTube virtual reality (VR) feature was activated on the phone, making it ready for viewing.
