Virtual reality training for public speaking in higher-education students

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This randomized wait-list controlled trial will enroll 80 French-speaking higher-education students and compare an immediate training group (n=40) with a wait-list control group (n=40). All participants receive a one-hour general advice session, then the experimental group receives three one-hour voice and fluency training sessions with virtual reality practice over three weeks while the control group waits and receives the same training after three weeks. Acoustic measures of voice and fluency are collected at baseline (week 1), immediately post-intervention (week 4), and three weeks later (week 7) to quantify changes. Outcomes will compare the two groups to see whether VR-supported training produces measurable improvements in oral communication.
