Study Title: The Impact of Augmented Reality versus Physical Activity on Attention, Reaction Time, and Visuospatial Skills in Preschoolers
Principal Investigator: Ibtasham Nasir, MPT (Neurology), Department of Physiotherapy, Jamia Hamdard
Study Design: Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT)
Objective: To compare the effects of Augmented Reality (AR)-based interventions and Physical Activity (PA) on attention, reaction time, and visuospatial skills in neurotypical preschoolers.
Methodology:
- Participants: 128 neurotypical preschoolers (aged 4-6 years) from preschools in New Delhi, randomly assigned to four groups (n=32 per group).
- Groups:
- Group A: AR-based intervention (Catchy Words AR & QuiverVision)
- Group B: PA intervention (from the Physical Activity Toolkit for Preschool-Aged Children)
- Group C: Combined AR + PA intervention
- Group D: Control group (no intervention)
- Intervention Duration: 6 weeks (3 sessions/week, 30 min/session)
- Outcome Measures: Stroop Color Test, Simple Reaction Time Test, and Mental Rotation Task (assessed via PsyToolkit)
- Statistical Analysis: Repeated measures ANOVA to compare group differences over time.
Ethical Considerations: Approved by the Institutional Ethics Committee. Parental consent will be obtained before participation.
Significance: Findings will contribute to understanding how AR and PA interventions enhance cognitive and motor development in preschoolers, informing early childhood education and neurorehabilitation strategies.
