Research into possible applications of virtual reality in such interventions has begun only recently. The aim of present study was to evaluate the effects of 8 sessions of VR-based cognitive training using the GRADYS game in healthy older adults (n = 72; aged 60-88) and older adults living with mild dementia (n = 27; aged 60-89). Results: Older adults with mild dementia demonstrated worse baseline cognitive performance than participants without dementia. Both groups showed progress in training, which was greater in healthy older adults. There were also significant differences in cognitive functioning before and after the training. However, positive changes were revealed almost exclusively in the group of older adults without dementia. Based on the findings, we can recommend the GRADYS game for cognitive enhancement and as a possible countermeasure for cognitive decline experienced in normal cognitive ageing. Our results provide also support for the usefulness of VR technology in cognitive interventions in older adults. The use of the GRADYS game in persons living with dementia, however, would require several of the hardware and software modifications.","author":[{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Person","name":"Ludmiła

Meeting that demand can significantly benefit from the deployment of innovative, computer-based applications capable of addressing specific needs, particularly in the area of cognitive impairment mitigation and rehabilitation. In that context, we present here our perspective viewpoint on the use of virtual reality (VR) tools for cognitive rehabilitation training, intended to assist medical personnel, health care workers, and other caregivers in improving the quality of daily life activities of people with MCI and AD. We discuss some effective design criteria and developmental strategies and suggest some possibly useful protocols and procedures.

One of the interventions that can be used to maintain cognitive function in the elderly is by using virtual reality. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explain the effect of virtual reality on cognitive function in elderly people with dementia based on empirical studies in the last five years. Method: the process of searching for journals or articles using a database indexed by Scopus, ProQuest, and Science Direct using adequate keywords.

The growing interest in this area has stimulated the development of technologically advanced computerized training, and solutions based on virtual reality (VR) are emerging. In the article, we discuss the opportunities for the use of VR in cognitive stimulation in older adults. Moreover, we present GRADYS training software, which is a newly developed computerized VR-based cognitive training, which consists of separate game scripts to stimulate four different cognitive domains: attention, memory, language, and visuospatial processing. The GRA-DYS software has been designed to work in the VR mode with the Oculus Rift. Considering current trends in cognitive rehabilitation and the needs of aging societies, the VR-based software might become a valuable specialized aid utilized in cognitive interventions in older adults. (Gerontol Pol 2017; 25: 248-253) Streszczenie W dobie starzenia się społeczeństw rośnie liczba badań nad metodami rehabilitacji poznawczej w populacjach klinicznych i usprawnienia poznawczego wśród zdrowych osób starszych. Wzrost zainteresowania tym zagadnieniem stymuluje ob-serwowany rozwój zaawansowanych technologicznie skomputeryzowanych aplikacji treningowych oraz rozwiązań bazu-jących na wirtualnej rzeczywistości (VR). W artykule omawiamy możliwości wykorzystania VR do stymulacji poznawczej osób starszych. Ponadto prezentujemy oprogramowanie treningowe GRADYS, które jest nowym skomputeryzowanym i ba-zującym na VR treningiem poznawczym złożonym z niezależnych gier stymulujących cztery różne funkcje poznawcze: uwa-gę, pamięć, funkcje językowe i funkcje wzrokowo-przestrzenne. Środowisko VR w oprogramowaniu GRADYS jest prezento-wane użytkownikowi za pomocą urządzenia Oculus Rift. Biorąc pod uwagę współczesne trendy w rehabilitacji poznawczej oraz potrzeby starzejących się społeczeństw, oprogramowanie bazujące na VR może stać się cenną specjalistyczną pomocą wykorzystywaną w interwencjach poznawczych u osób starszych.

Environmental interventions, like cognitive rehabilitation, stimulation and training can significantly improve cognitive functioning, so mitigating the cognitive decline. In this area, the adoption of state-of-the-art virtual reality technologies can provide a cost-effective, flexible and comprehensive solution for realizing complex cognitive training environments. With the aim of preserving mnestic and logical-praxic functions of patients with MCI or Alzheimer&#39;s disease at the early stages, in this paper we describe our ongoing work in designing a novel, fullyequipped virtual reality cognitive training system. The system is characterized by a high degree of realism and interactivity, to provide the patient with an adequate sense of presence within the virtual environment.
