目的本荟萃分析的目的是探索目前可用的，从虚拟（VR），增强（AR）和混合现实（MR）的培训转移的实证研究结果，并确定这种基于延展实境（XR）的培训是否是有效的传统training methods.Background MR，VR和AR已经被用作培训工具，在各种领域。然而，这些操作是否对训练有效的问题还没有得到定量和结论性的回答。证据表明，虽然扩展的现实往往可以节省时间和成本的培训机制，其有效性的培训tools.Method目前的文献进行了检查，所有合格的文章有关培训MR，VR和AR的转移被列入荟萃分析。效果大小进行计算，以确定影响，XR为基础的因素，受训者为基础的因素，和任务为基础的因素对性能的措施后，XR为基础的training.Results结果表明，在XR的培训不表示一个不同的结果比在非模拟，控制环境中的培训。结论在多个领域的众多研究中，扩展现实作为普遍接受的方法的培训机制是有效的。XR的价值在于在排除传统方法的情况下提供培训，例如危险或成本可能使传统培训无法进行的情况。
Objective The objective of this meta-analysis is to explore the presently available, empirical findings on transfer of training from virtual (VR), augmented (AR), and mixed reality (MR) and determine whether such extended reality (XR)-based training is as effective as traditional training methods.Background MR, VR, and AR have already been used as training tools in a variety of domains. However, the question of whether or not these manipulations are effective for training has not been quantitatively and conclusively answered. Evidence shows that, while extended realities can often be time-saving and cost-saving training mechanisms, their efficacy as training tools has been debated.Method The current body of literature was examined and all qualifying articles pertaining to transfer of training from MR, VR, and AR were included in the meta-analysis. Effect sizes were calculated to determine the effects that XR-based factors, trainee-based factors, and task-based factors had on performance measures after XR-based training.Results Results showed that training in XR does not express a different outcome than training in a nonsimulated, control environment. It is equally effective at enhancing performance.Conclusion Across numerous studies in multiple fields, extended realities are as effective of a training mechanism as the commonly accepted methods. The value of XR then lies in providing training in circumstances, which exclude traditional methods, such as situations when danger or cost may make traditional training impossible.
