Assessment of attentional processes in patients with anxiety-depressive disorders using virtual reality. Camacho-Conde, José Antonio Legarra, Leire Bolinches, Victoria Cano, Patricia Guasch, Mónica Llanos Torres, María Mejías, Miguel Climent, Gema Depresión mental - Tratamiento - Innovaciones tecnológicas Realidad virtual - Uso terapéutico CC BY To characterize the attention deficits in one-hundred-fifteen participants, comprising two types of clinical profiles (affective and anxiety disorder), through a test of continuous VR execution. Method: Three tests (i.e., Nesplora Aquarium, BDI, and STAI) were used to obtain a standardized measure of attention, as well as the existence and severity of depression and anxiety, respectively. Results: Significant differences (CI = 95%) were found between the control group and the group with depression, in variables related to the speed of visual processing (p = 0.008) in the absence of distractors (p = 0.041) and during the first dual execution task (p = 0.011). For scores related to sustained attention, patients with depression and those with anxiety did not differ from controls. Our results suggest attentional deficits in both clinical populations when performing a continuous performance test that involved the participation of the central executive system of working memory. 2024-02-12T10:12:13Z 2024-02-12T10:12:13Z 2021-12-09 journal article : Camacho-Conde, J.A.; Legarra, L.; Bolinches, V.M.; Cano, P.; Guasch, M.; Llanos-Torres, M.; Serret, V.; Mejías, M.; Climent, G.
