Abstract

Date Presented 4/17/2015

The lateral range of the center of pressure of a child playing a virtual reality game with another child was significantly wider compared to playing alone (n = 20). The results may indicate the benefit of pairing children during balance treatment sessions while also incorporating social interaction.
