Paper Abstract:
|
A training program of differential diagnosis skills was developed to enhance the learning of the psychopathological exploration of Dissociative Disorders using Virtual Reality (VR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) based simulations. The sample of the study consisted of 74 psychology students (University of Barcelona). Comparisons between the experimental (VR and AI training) and the control group (traditional role-playing training) showed that students trained with the VR-AI system obtained better scores than students trained with the traditional method. These findings suggest that the acquisition of psychopathological exploration skills can be improved by utilizing learning methods that consider interactive and meaningful experiences that allow for recreation of real situations. |
