I thought it would be difficult, but this is actually something I can do – experiences with Virtual Reality-based cognitive training in persons with TBI
This study shows that participants experienced VR as motivating, engaging, and easy to use, regardless of prior experiences with VR. The participants demonstrated how they included VR in everyday life by creating new routines when they performed cognitive training. Therewere few reports of adverse events. However, some experienced that VR had a negative impact on their energy level. Participants described the importance of therapeutic involvement for individual tailoring of the intervention.
