Can VR replace the classic chair stand test?
NCT ID NCT07362368
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will check if a virtual reality (VR) version of the Five-Repetition Sit-to-Stand test is as valid and reliable as the traditional version. Sixty healthy young adults will perform both tests, and the VR version will be repeated a week later to see if results are consistent. The goal is to see if VR can offer a more standardized and objective way to measure lower body strength and mobility.
