A Preliminary Study on the Development of a Virtual Reality‐Based Financial Decision‐Making Training Tool for Investment Trusts: Usability and Acceptability Among Community‐Dwelling Healthy Older People
This preliminary study suggests that VR-based financial decision-making training is a promising tool for financial education in older adults, as it may reduce psychological barriers to financial learning. However, improvements in usability, including intuitive and interactive feedback, are required. Future studies should explore the long-term impact of VR training on financial decision-making, potential adaptations for vulnerable populations, and its role within hybrid financial education programs.
