Journal ArticleDOI

Affective Interactions Using Virtual Reality: The Link between Presence and Emotions

TL;DR: The results confirmed the efficacy of VR as affective medium and showed a circular interaction between presence and emotions: the interaction with "anxious" and "relaxing" virtual environments produced anxiety and relaxation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of egocentric and allocentric abilities in Alzheimer's disease: A systematic review

TL;DR: This systematic review of experimental studies investigating allocentric and egocentric deficits to understand which spatial cognitive processes are differentially impaired in the different stages of Alzheimer's disease highlighted that spatial deficits appear in the earliest stages of the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detecting early egocentric and allocentric impairments deficits in Alzheimer's disease: an experimental study with virtual reality.

TL;DR: An initial insight into the cognitive underpinnings of amnestic impairment in aMCI and AD patient exploiting the potentiality of VR is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

From allo- to egocentric spatial ability in early Alzheimer’s disease: A study with virtual reality spatial tasks

TL;DR: The data are consistent with the neurological results regarding the early degeneration of the hippocampus and retrosplenial cortex in AD, which underlies the ability to translate between these two reference frames.
Proceedings Article

NeuroVR: an open source virtual reality platform for clinical psychology and behavioral neurosciences.

TL;DR: A cost-free virtual reality platform that allows non-expert users to adapt the content of a pre-designed virtual environment to meet the specific needs of the clinical or experimental setting, and an interesting feature of the NeuroVR Editor is the possibility to add new objects to the database.
