Thomson, James A.; Tolmie, Andrew K.; Foot, Hugh C.; Whelan, Kirstie M.; Sarvary, Penelope; Morrison, Sheila – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied, 2005
The roadside crossing judgments of children aged 7, 9, and 11 years were assessed relative to controls before and after training with a computer-simulated traffic environment. Trained children crossed more quickly, and their estimated crossing times became better aligned with actual crossing times. They crossed more promptly, missed fewer safe…

Glang, Ann; Noell, John; Ary, Dennis; Swartz, Lynne – American Journal of Health Behavior, 2005
Objectives: To evaluate an interactive multimedia (IMM) program that teaches young children safe pedestrian skills. Methods: The program uses IMM (animation and video) to teach children critical skills for crossing streets safely. A computer-delivered video assessment and a real-life street simulation were used to measure the effectiveness of the…

Strickland, Dorothy C.; McAllister, David; Coles, Claire D.; Osborne, Susan – Topics in Language Disorders, 2007
This article describes an evolution of training programs to use first-person interaction in virtual reality (VR) situations to teach safety skills to children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD). Multiple VR programs for children aged 2 to 9 were built and tested between 1992 and 2007. Based on these…
