Cognitive rehabilitation of schizophrenia through NeuroVr training.
2013
Cognitive difficulties are prevalent in people with diagnosis of schizophrenia and are associated with poor long-term functioning. In particular, memory, selective, divided and sustained attention and executive functions are altered by this disease. We used a Virtual Reality environment (developed via the NeuroVr2.0 software) for the rehabilitation of shifting, sustained attention and action planning functions using tasks reminiscent of daily life tasks. Test and retest showed significant differences in the assessed cognitive dimensions.

Virtual reality environments to rehabilitation attention deficits in schizophrenic patients

Abstract. Cognitive dysfunction is a core feature of schizophrenia. Patients with schizophrenia shown perform poorly on tasks that require vigilance or sustained attention.

The study aimed to develop a Virtual Reality cognitive training to improve the selective, divide and sustained attention. Specifically, we developed, via the NeuroVr 2.0 software, three different virtual environments with the hierarchical sequence…

Negli ultimi anni lo studio delle dipendenze patologiche si è arricchito di numerosi contributi scientifici ma anche di osservazioni cliniche che hanno ampliato l'area di indagine sulle condotte compulsive. Obiettivo degli autori è offrire le acquisizioni più recenti per affrontare la sfida che le dipendenze patologiche pongono oggi al clinico e al ricercatore, allo psicofarmacologo e allo psicoterapeuta
