Title

Examination of age-related differences in a size-estimation virtual environment task

Abstract

One component of the US Army's Virtual Environment Performance Assessment Battery was used to examine age-related differences in a size-estimation task. Specifically, a group with a mean age of 24 was compared to a group with a mean age of 70 based on estimates of the height of a human figure in a VE. All participants were found to underestimate the height of the virtual figure. However, the height estimations of younger participants were significantly lower than older participants.
