Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? The experimental group's mean Simulator Sickness Questionnaire score of 3.8 fell in the negligible category, though two participants reported significant discomfort. → Trinidad-Fernández 2026

Simulator Sickness Questionnaire administered to the experimental group after the iVR session showed "a final SSQ score of 3.8 (± 3.4)", categorized as negligible, with two participants in the significant range (10–15 points).
"The motion sickness experienced by the group using iVR was categorised as negligible, with a final SSQ score of 3.8 (± 3.4). Nevertheless, two participants felt significant discomfort with the technology (10–15 points)."
