摘要：To investigate the clinical applicability of head-mount display (HMD) in evaluating attentional behavioral disorders, we developed a new desk-task environment with HMD. 18 patients with right hemisphere damage were recruited. We compared the results of traditional neuropsychological tests and tasks carried out under the HMD setting using attention behavioral disturbances observed in daily life. The findings show that performance under HMD settings predicts the presence or absence of attention behavioral disturbance with higher accuracy than traditional tasks. Our newly developed HMD system shows promise as an appropriate method for assessing attentional behavioral disturbances. Although necessarily speculative at this stage, we believe that the more dynamic cognitive demands required to successfully accomplish the HMD task might be linked to attentional behavior in ADL.
