This tested Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) on “proactive safety behaviours and their antecedents”. They argue that the efficacy of IVR depends on the implementation quality, which depends on immersion, presence and interactivity. 22 training sessions were held with 68 participants. Extracts: · “Increased interactivity was shown to particularly improve the perceived control over safety issues and… Continue reading Short and long-term effects of interactivity in immersive virtual reality training for occupational safety

Hazard identification performance comparison between virtual reality and traditional construction safety training modes for different learning style individuals.
This new study may interest people – it compared hazard identification performance between VR and traditional construction safety training. They also compared the results to different learning styles (which I’ve skipped). Key findings: · “both traditional and VR training can improve the efficiency of visual search during individual hazard identification, increase hazard identification accuracy by individuals,… Continue reading Hazard identification performance comparison between virtual reality and traditional construction safety training modes for different learning style individuals.
