The Effectiveness of VR-Based Cognitive Training Program for Mild Cognitive Impairment: A Pilot Study
This pilot study demonstrates that VR-based cognitive training may be a feasible therapeutic approach for cognitive impairment. The observed improvements in neuropsychological test scores and enhanced brain connectivity in memory-related regions suggest potential benefits for MCI patients. Further research with control group and larger sample sizes is warranted to confirm these findings and distinguish intervention effects from natural learning or test-retest effects.
