Virtual Reality Judgment Abilities in Children
Abstract: At younger age children may not be able to decide if a concept is real or not. Eventually with the development of reality judgment skills, the judgment skills are assumed to evolve with age. The study was carried out with the aim of investigating reality judgment abilities in typically developing children between 3–6 years of age. The participants were divided into three groups with a class interval of one year. …
