Enhancing Neuropsychological Assesment Through Virtual Reality: A Pilot Study of the Corsi-Block Tapping Task

Neuropsychological assesment has advanced significantly in recent years thanks to the use of virtual reality (VR) technology. An immersive tool called virtual reality therapy (VRT) has a lot of potential for treating cognitive deficits brought on by neurological disorders. Executive functions, memory, spatial cognition, and attention have all been shown to be improved by VR interventions. In our pilot study, the Corsi-Block Tapping Task was transformed into a VR environment, and there were no discernible differences between it and the physical version, pointing to VR's potential clinical value for cognitive rehabilitation. Despite some unanticipated results, it appears that the future of neuropsychological rehabilitation is set to change through user-friendly VR interfaces and biometric monitoring, making it more accessible and personalized for patients.
