This presentation was given at the 2016 Serious Play Conference, hosted by the UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School.
Since little is known about the efficacy of health interventions in a VE, this study, conducted by Duke and Virtual Heroes, constitutes an innovative step in exploring how this type of environment can be suused to facilitate self-management behaviors in those with chronic diseases, in this case, diabetes. This program has good potential to improve care in an easily disseminated model that promotes cost-effective resource utilization.
