Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The most virtual interaction device (no physical contact- abstract) will allow performance improvement in a task when compared to a more real device (with physical contact - concrete) through a longitudinal protocol in people with autism spectrum disorder. The improvement will be evaluated through the statistical difference between the error variables (absolute, variable and constant error) recorded in milliseconds. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| A. There will be performance transfer between similar task practice in real and virtual environment. It will be evaluated by means of the statistical difference between the error variables (absolute, variable and constant error) recorded in milliseconds. | — |
