Video Game Intervention In Older Adults

Официальное название

The Effects Of A Video-Based Game Intervention On Cognitive, Physical And Psychosocial Outcomes In Older Adults

Обзор

The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of a rehabilitative game-based intervention on self-efficacy, balance, and visual-motor integration in individuals aged 60 years and older. The primary research questions are: Does the rehabilitative game-based intervention improve balance and visual-motor integration? Does the rehabilitative game-based intervention improve self-efficacy levels? Researchers will compare a rehabilitative game intervention group with a control group. Participants will complete baseline and post-intervention assessments. Individuals in the intervention group will participate in rehabilitative game sessions twice per week for 6 weeks, while the control group will not receive any intervention.

Подробное описание

This study is a randomized controlled experimental trial designed to examine the effects of a rehabilitative game-based intervention on self-efficacy, balance, and visual-motor integration in individuals aged 60 years and older. The study will be conducted using a two-group parallel design.

Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group or the control group. All participants will complete baseline assessments before the intervention period and post-intervention assessments after the completion of the study.

Participants in the intervention group will receive rehabilitative game-based training using the BeCure system. The intervention will last for 6 weeks, with sessions conducted twice per week. Each session will last approximately 30 minutes. The sessions will include structured interactive tasks targeting balance, coordination, and visual-motor integration.

Participants in the control group will not receive any intervention during the study period and will only participate in baseline and post-intervention assessments.

The primary outcomes of the study are balance performance, visual-motor integration and self-efficacy. These variables will be evaluated by comparing pre-intervention and post-intervention measurements within and between groups. The study procedures will be carried out according to the planned intervention protocol and standardized assessment procedures.

• Другое Game-Based Virtual Reality Intervention
  The intervention consists of a structured rehabilitative game-based training program delivered using the BeCure system. The program includes interactive tasks that require active weight shifting, postural control, coordinated upper and lower extremity movements, and visually guided motor responses. The intervention will be implemented over a 6-week period, with sessions conducted twice per week. Each session will last approximately 30 minutes. Task difficulty will be progressively adjusted acco
