Virtual Reality as a Intrinsic Motivation Intervention

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The goal is to explore the use of Virtual Reality (VR) as an intervention to increase intrinsic motivation in a healthcare setting. The investigators would like to determine if an educational VR intervention in the course of healthcare could increase pediatric patient intrinsic motivation compared to standard of care (i.e no VR).
