Virtual Reality in Nursing Students' Communication Skills

Standard virtual reality applications rely on computer-generated animation environments and avatars; however, in the present study, the content created by actors/actresses with theater training by using cameras and audio recording devices suitable for creating virtual reality content included images of real environments and people.

While the participants in the intervention group received training on virtual reality, those in the control group took the standard curriculum course. Students in the control group received no training. The students in the control group were told that the program would be implemented to those who volunteered after the study was completed.
