Zusammenfassung:
Immersive Virtual Reality (VR) shows promise for cognitive diagnostics and rehabilitation as it can present patients with realistic, lifelike environments, and allows to precisely record behavioral performance to infer indicators of cognitive processes. The aim of our study was (1) to test feasibility of immersive VR in neurological patients with acquired brain injury, and detect limits in its applicability, and (2) investigate the effects of immersion and presence, usability and general motivational aspects as well as symptoms of cybersickness on the user experience. For this purpose, a novel VR task, the immersive Virtual Memory Task (imVMT), was developed and tested to measure spatial memory in neurological patients. Preliminary data will be discussed with a focus on feasibility.
