BEHAVIORAL

E-MATVR

It involves using computer software uploaded onto wireless virtual reality (VR) technology (similar to downloading an app on a mobile phone) and will be delivered using a headset, handheld controllers, and voiceover (all wireless). E-MATVR comprises three serious gaming levels aimed at familiarising men with the normal look and feel of the testes, common testicular symptoms and diseases, and the importance of early help-seeking.

BEHAVIORAL

E-MATE

It involves using the same information as EMATVR delivered as plain text (e.g., PDF) with still images from E-MATVR. Participants will be given approximately 10 minutes to read the text/look at images using a tablet (e.g., iPad).
