Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Immersive VR-Based Multimodal Intervention (Virtual-METS)

This intervention consists of a 12-week, group-based program using immersive virtual reality technology (MK360) without head-mounted displays. Each 60-minute session combines mindfulness practices adapted from the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program, cognitive training targeting attention, processing speed, memory, and executive function through realistic virtual environments (such as parks, markets, or home interiors), and chair-based physical exercises focused on balance, stretching, and muscle strengthening. The intervention is delivered in small groups of five participants, twice per week, for a total of 24 sessions, and is led by a trained neuropsychologist.
