Assessing the feasibility of automated virtual reality training of functional analysis procedures for preservice clinicians.
Article in Journal of applied behavior analysis. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Effective training in functional analysis is essential in applied behavior analysis, yet traditional methods may not include adequate practice opportunities. Researchers evaluated an automated virtual reality (VR) simulation designed to teach novice clinicians to implement functional analysis procedures. Six participants completed immersive VR training with automated prompting followed by baseline probe, feedback, and treatment-extension phases. Two participants achieved mastery through VR training alone, whereas four required brief feedback to reach criterion. Immediate performance improvements were observed across participants, and those receiving feedback continued to display mastery-level performance in live role plays during a treatment extension. Results suggest that VR training may enhance procedural fidelity in functional analysis protocols while reducing training risks. Findings support VR as a promising tool for scalable, safe, and effective training in applied behavior analysis practices.
