Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if Virtual Reality (VR) can elicit emotional responses that are captured via physiological biometrics such as heart rate variability and skin conductance levels. As a non-inferiority study the investigators anticipate the technologies will elicit an emotional not inferior to those responses of an in-person simulations of workplace scenarios (i.e medical error and workplace harassment).

Primary Outcome

Biometric sensors will be placed in strategic locations in order to collect respiratory sinus arrhythmia throughout either in-person or virtual simulation

Interventions

  • DEVICE Virtual Simulation
  • OTHER In-person Simulation
