Effectiveness of Scenario-Driven Virtual Reality for Improving Nursing Students' Behavioral Responses Toward Older Adults With Dementia: Protocol for a 4-Arm Postintervention Study.
Article in JMIR research protocols, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Dementia training requires innovative strategies to improve nursing students' attitudes, knowledge, and behavioral responses regarding ageism. Virtual reality (VR) offers immersive learning, but existing interventions often rely on passive 360° viewing, which provides limited opportunities for practice communication. Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a scenario-driven, AI-based VR awareness simulation adventure (ASA) in improving nursing students' attitudes toward people living with dementia, knowledge of dementia, ageism, and intention to help. Methods: This protocol outlines a 4-arm quasi-experimental 2×2 factorial design involving ASA VR and conventional lecture-based dementia training. Nursing students will complete preintervention and postintervention assessments measuring attitudes toward people living with dementia, dementia knowledge, ageism, and intention to help. The sample size justification is based on previous VR-based dementia education studies that reported large effects (Cohen Results: Data collection began in December 2025 and was completed in June 2026, with 182 participants recruited. Data analysis is currently ongoing. Findings will report on the effectiveness of ASA VR in enhancing attitudes toward people living with dementia, dementia knowledge, ageism, and intention-to-help outcomes. Conclusions: This protocol introduces Indonesia's first scenario-driven VR dementia simulation training. Findings may inform the development of culturally adapted VR-based dementia training.
