Abstract

Purpose: The use of Augmented Reality (AR) in the field of neurodevelopmental communication disability is emergent and under-researched. The views of supporters on the use of AR by children with neurodevelopmental communication disability will help in the design of applications suited to their educational, learning, social, and communication needs.

Aims: To determine the views of supporters of children with neurodevelopmental communication disability on the use of AR, and facilitators or barriers to its use.

Methods: We conducted an online survey on the use of AR including categorical and open-ended questions. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and content analysis.

Results: In total, 17 health professionals, 12 educators, and 7 parents completed the survey. Participants across groups viewed AR as a potentially helpful technology if sufficient training and technical support were provided. They also considered that financial costs and lack of knowledge could limit AR implementation.

Conclusions: Supporters of children with developmental communication disability view that AR may be a useful and motivational tool if it is affordable and implemented with training and technical support. Future research should gather the views of children on and experience with AR to further the co-design of AR applications.
