Summary
This study tested whether adding a virtual reality experience to an online education program could help reduce stress and anxiety in people caring for a loved one with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease. About 127 unpaid caregivers took part, with some receiving only the education and others also using VR. The goal was to see if VR could boost the benefits of the program and even change brain activity related to empathy and stress.
