Cardiovascular Health Education Via Virtual Reality for Breast Cancer Survivors Receiving Anthracyclines or Trastuzumab

CTRCD Knowledge

Change in knowledge of CTRCD and in measures of improving cardiovascular health. This investigator-developed true/false knowledge survey consists of 10 items that directly assess knowledge learned in SurviVRSE. Scoring this scale will consist of summing up the total items that were answered correctly (range = 0-10; 0 = no knowledge and 10=high knowledge).

Usability

Usability will be assessed using the Virtual Reality System Usability Questionnaire. This 10-item measure includes prompts such as "I think I would like to use this system frequently" and "I thought the system was easy to use." Women will respond to the items using a 5-point Likert scale (1= strongly disagree and 5= strongly agree). Scores will be totaled (with some items requiring reverse-coding).

Acceptability

Acceptability will be assessed using the User Experience Questionnaire, a validated 8-item 7-point Likert scale survey that measures pragmatic and hedonic qualities of SurviVRSE (e.g., obstructive/supportive, complicated/easy). The UEC developers provide an Excel spreadsheet to analyze data collected from the tool. https://www.ueq-online.org/. The range of the scales is between -3 (horribly bad) to +3 (extremely good).

User Satisfaction

SurviVRSE satisfaction and engagement will be assessed using an adapted 6-item 5-point Likert scale survey (1=strongly disagree and 5=strongly agree). Items include "I could engage SurviVRSE," I would recommend SurviVRSE to another survivor," and "I liked the music." To evaluate satisfaction, the six items will be totaled. Scores will range from 6-30 with higher scores indicating greater satisfaction.

Physical Activity

Physical activity will be assessed using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). The 7-item scale assesses sedentary behavior, and moderate and vigorous physical activity by asking respondents if they participate in various forms of physical activity and, if so, how many hours and minutes/day. Scores will be reported as Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) minutes a week. Higher MET minutes equate to greater energy expenditure. High \>= 1500 MET minutes a week; Moderate \>=600 MET minutes a week; Low: not meeting criteria for moderate or high.

Sleep Quality

The Insomnia Severity Index will be used to assess sleep quality. This 7-item scale prompts respondents to consider the past 2 weeks when responding to items about falling asleep, staying asleep, and waking up to early in addition to the perceived impact their sleep has on their daily lives. The scale consists of likert scales such as none to very (0=none and 4=very); very satisfied to very dissatisfied (0=very satisfied and 4=very dissatisfied); and not at all to very much (0=not at all and 4=very much). The total score of the 7 items determines insomnia severity (0-7 = no clinically significant insomnia to 22-28 = clinical insomnia).

Tobacco Use

The Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) Questionnaire for Tobacco use will be used to assess cigarette, snuff and other forms of tobacco (4 items). Responses include yes/no for some items (e.g., Have you smoked at least 100 cigarettes in your entire life) or Likert (1=every day to 3 not at all) for other items (e.g., Do you now smoke cigarettes every day, some days, or not at all). Each item is assessed individually.

Intent to Change Behavior

This 3-item scale, developed by the investigative team, assesses an individual's intent to change the following behaviors - physical activity, sleep, and tobacco use. Participants will respond to each item using a 5-point Likert scale (1= strongly disagree to 5 = strongly agree). Higher scores will indicate greater intent to change the behavior, and each item will be scored individually.
