a trend toward significancep = 0.053
With regard to perceived usefulness (PU), the interaction between Therapist Orientation × avatar possible use (training, treatment, and assessment) showed a trend toward significance ( p = 0.053), but did not reach the predefined threshold of 0.05— F (2, 76) = 3.055, p = 0.053, η 2 = 0.074—suggesting that cognitive therapists consider avatars more useful in training ( M = 3.99, SD = 1.53) compared to their colleagues from other orientations ( M = 3.33, SD = 1.66).
