Dear all,

we will conduct an experiment in which

1) Participants are first trained in the assembly of an appliance with Immersive or Desktop Virtual Reality and afterwards have to assemble the physical appliance.

2) Their retention knowledge is assessed after 2 and 4 weeks by having them assemble the physical appliance again.

Next to the number of errors and the time to completion we want to measure affective learning outcomes such as motivation, self-efficacy and satisfaction. I want to come up with a hypothesis and have not formed a strong opinion yet whether motivation, self-efficacy and satisfaction are likely to stay at the same level as they were after the first training & assessment or which direction they are likely to move. This would inform the hypothesis regarding the change in the affective outcomes in the retention tests.

If you have seen any literature on sustained motivation, self-efficacy or satisfaction or the general movement of them over time after one initial training, this would be highly appreciated.

Thank you very much in advance for your help!
