This study investigates the impact of an immersive virtual reality (VR) simulation herd immunity on vaccination intentions and its potential underlying mechanisms. In this preregistered field study, N = 654 participants were randomly assigned to one three VR conditions: (1) Gamified Herd Immunity; (2) Immunity + Empathy (with additional narrative elements); (3) Control (gamified with no vaccination-related content). simulation, embodied a vulnerable person navigated wedding venue trying avoid getting infected. A total 455 below maximum take novel vaccine without severe cybersickness analyzed. The conditions increased by 6.68 7.06 points 0-100 scale, respectively, compared 1.91 for condition. condition enhanced empathy significantly more than but did not result in higher intentions. Experienced presence was related change results suggest that communication can effectively increase intentions; effect is solely due technological novelty does depend empathy.

ybersickness has been one of the main impediments to widespread adoption Virtual Reality for decades. It argued that several factors can influence occurrence cybersickness, such as technical factors, interaction design, but also users' demographics and their perceived presence. Yet, previous studies had comparably small sample sizes demographically homogeneous samples; comparisons across (e.g., regarding demographic factors) are challenging due large variation in studied virtual environments. In this paper, we address these limitations report results a lab-in-the-field experiment on cybersickness with heterogeneous $N =837$ participants who navigated interacted inside environment (ages 18–80, $M = 29.34, SD 9.50$, 431 males, 400 females, 6 non-binaries other). We found female lower VR experience were more susceptible experiencing higher levels cybersickness. Participants' increased time spent distance traversed world up point, above which reported declined. link between reduced head motion, well led them explore environment. contrast past studies, did not find any evidence suggesting an effect age nor negative correlation presence Based our results, derived model achieves mean classification accuracy 67.1% two using demographic, user experience, behavioral data VR.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination protects against six types of cancer-cervical, anal, oropharyngeal, penile, vulvar, and vaginal. In the United States (U.S.), HPV coverage in college students remains low, especially Mid-South region, despite highest risk infections disease burden. However, few studies have assessed among here. This study examined factors associated with explored preferred strategies for promoting vaccination. A mixed-methods design comprising a cross-sectional, self-report online survey dyadic virtual interviews was conducted. Simple random sampling performed to recruit total 417 undergraduate aged 18-26 from March May 2021; convenience three sex-matched dyads (four female two male) undergraduates respondents who had not completed vaccine series 2021. Binary logistic regression analyses showed knowledge perceived barriers were contributing both male students, while risks hesitancy only students. Findings qualitative content analysis identified students' at multiple levels promotion, corroborating findings study. The provide implications that benefit development tailored interventions aimed facilitating catch-up region. There is an urgent need further research implementation effective address improve uptake this population.

Abstract Effective interventions that support blood donor retention are needed. Yet, integrating an intervention into the time-pressed and operationally sensitive context of a donation center requires justification for disruptions to optimized process. This research provides evidence virtual reality (VR) paradigms can serve as environment in which be tested prior being delivered centers. Study 1 (N = 48) demonstrated 360°-video VR environments elicit similar profile emotional experience live center. Presence immersion were high, cybersickness symptoms low. 2 134) was experiment deploying test impact on intentions donate. Participants condition who engaged suite tasks drawn from process model emotion regulation (including attentional deployment, positive reappraisal, response modulation) reported more than participants control condition, turn increased donate blood. By showing promise benefitting via relatively low-cost low-resource methodology, this supports use trial deployment operationally-context field settings.

Background Human papillomavirus (HPV) can cause cancers in men and women. Despite the availability of an effective vaccine, HPV vaccination coverage remains suboptimal among college students. Literature showed that hesitancy for is a leading barrier to uptake this group. However, prior interventions have shown limitations reducing vaccine Thus, study examined conventional educational approach using information statement (VIS), subsequently explored students’ potential virtual reality (VR) technology overcoming interventional efforts. Methods We employed mixed-methods design along with convenience sampling, constituting one-way pre- post-intervention (HPV VIS) survey (Study A) individual interviews B). All data collections occurred 44 students at urban public university mid-south region U.S. between October 2022 April 2023. Study A assessed changes outcomes including knowledge, beliefs/attitudes, hesitancy, intentions. B measured primary reasons preferred strategies promotion VR-based education. conducted paired t-test Wilcoxon signed ranks test quantitative framework analysis qualitative data. Results Participants reported significant improvements knowledge [ t (43) = 6.68, p < 0.001] regarding before after reading VIS. No change was observed The revealed needed information, VR future Conclusion findings provided essential on designing focused Future research should consider these developing increasing acceptance

Introduction We investigated the effect of social media-based interventions on COVID-19 vaccine intention (VI) and confidence in Japan. Methods conducted a three-arm randomised controlled trial between 5 November 2021 9 January 2022 during low incidence (<1000/day) Japan midst second third waves. Japanese citizens aged ≥20 who had not received any did intend to be vaccinated were randomly assigned one following three groups: (1) control group, (2) group using mobile app chatbot providing information vaccines (3) interactive webinars with health professionals. VI predefined Vaccine Confidence Index (VCI) measuring importance, safety effectiveness compared before after under intention-to-treat principle. Logistic regression models used investigate each intervention postintervention changes VCI control. Results Among 386 participants 359 (93.0%), 231 (59.8%) 207 (53.6%) completed postsurvey for control, webinar groups, respectively. The average duration was 32 days 27 group. increased from 0% 18.5% (95% CI 14.5%, 22.5%) 15.4% 10.8%, 20.1%) 19.7% 24.9%) without significant difference (OR improvement=0.8 0.5, 1.3), p=0.33 OR=1.1 0.7, 1.6), p=0.73 control). change tended larger (3.3% vs −2.5% OR improvement=1.3 0.9, 2.0), p=0.18; 2.5% 1.9% safety, 1.9), p=0.62; −2.4% −7.6% effectiveness, OR=1.4 2.1), p=0.09). Improvement importance (7.8% −2.5%, OR=1.8 1.2, 2.8), p<0.01), (6.4% −7.6%, OR=2.2 1.4, 3.4), p<0.01) (6.0% 1.9%, OR=1.6 1.0, 2.6), p=0.08).
