Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| It is expected that the RVI exercise will reduce state anxiety levels and that its anxiolytic effect will be greater than that of the exergame and traditional continuous exercise. This outcome will be assessed using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. In order to assess anxiety, this instrument has 20 statements with 4 response options and a score that varies from 20 to 80 points, with the score indicating low (0-32), medium (33-49) or high (50 or more) anxiety level ? | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The RVI session is expected to be more fun than the exergame session, and it will be more fun than the traditional continuous exercise session. Additionally, affectivity levels will be higher after the RVI session than after exergame sessions and this will evoke greater affectivity than traditional continuous exercise | — |
