Abstract:
The integration of virtual, mixed, and augmented reality technologies in cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology represents a transformative frontier. In this Commentary, we conducted a meta-analysis of studies that explored the impact of Virtual Reality (VR), Mixed Reality (MR), and Augmented Reality (AR) on cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology. Our review highlights the versatile applications of VR, ranging from spatial cognition assessments to rehabilitation for Traumatic Brain Injury. We found that MR and AR offer innovative avenues for cognitive training, particularly in memory-related disorders. The applications extend to addressing social cognition disorders and serving as therapeutic interventions for mental health issues. Collaborative efforts between neuroscientists and technology developers are crucial, with reinforcement learning and neuroimaging studies enhancing the potential for improved outcomes. Ethical considerations, including informed consent, privacy, and accessibility, demand careful attention. Our review identified common aspects of the meta-analysis, including the potential of VR technologies in cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology, the use of MR and AR in memory research, and the role of VR in neurorehabilitation and therapy.
摘要:
虚拟的整合,混合,认知神经科学和神经心理学中的增强现实技术代表了一个变革性的前沿。在这篇评论中,我们对探索虚拟现实(VR)影响的研究进行了荟萃分析,混合现实(MR)以及认知神经科学和神经心理学的增强现实(AR)。我们的评论强调了VR的多功能应用,从空间认知评估到创伤性脑损伤的康复。我们发现MR和AR为认知训练提供了创新的途径,特别是与记忆有关的疾病。这些应用扩展到解决社会认知障碍,并作为心理健康问题的治疗干预措施。神经科学家和技术开发人员之间的合作是至关重要的,强化学习和神经影像学研究增强了改善预后的潜力。伦理考虑,包括知情同意,隐私,和可访问性,需要小心注意。我们的审查确定了荟萃分析的共同方面,包括VR技术在认知神经科学和神经心理学方面的潜力,MR和AR在记忆研究中的应用,以及VR在神经康复和治疗中的作用。
