Positive Youth Development in the Metaverse

Conditions studied: Healthy, Healthy Lifestyle, Childhood ALL, Behavior, Child

In brief

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.
