Effectiveness of virtual reality-based balance training in primary school children: a randomized controlled trial

Balance and coordination are fundamental for children’s motor development and injury prevention, yet sedentary lifestyles have contributed to their decline. Conventional balance training can be effective, but maintaining children’s engagement remains challenging. Virtual reality (VR)–based programs provide immersive an...

Effects of a Virtual Reality-Based Physical Activity Program Using Three Levels of Immersion on Postural Control and Motor Skills in Children With Developmental Disability.

Children with developmental disabilities (DD) exhibit low postural control and increased body sway, leading to delays in motor skill development. This study examined the effects of a virtual reality-based physical activity program with three immersion levels (non-, semi-, and fully immersive) on postural control and mo...

Domain-specific motor skill outcomes following a structured play-based motor intervention in preschool children: a cluster-randomized controlled trial

Background Fundamental motor skills (FMS) are key components of early motor competence and part of the physical competence domain of physical literacy. However, less is known about domain-specific effects of structured play-based motor programs in preschool children and whether these effects vary by baseline motor comp...
