Abstract:The purpose of this study was to determine if the addition of extended reality (XR) to an existing training program provided to new hire flight attendants improved training effectiveness in terms of cabin door procedures. Methods. This retrospective cohort study used preexisting flight attendant training data provided by a collaborating organization. The data were divided into two groups, the AQP-only control group, and the AQP+VR intervention group. The data represented training events (n = 13,525) spilt between AQP-only (n = 11,180) and AQP+VR (n = 2,345). The groups were compared in terms of cabin door training pass rates. Results. The observed training pass rate was 84% in the AQP group vs. 88% in the AQP+VR group. Conclusion. Supplemental XR training appeared to improve cabin door procedural training effectiveness, although there were some important study limitations resulting from the retrospective study design.
