Summary

This study tested whether a 4-week virtual reality (VR) training program could improve thinking skills and daily functioning in 62 adults with stable mood disorders (like depression or bipolar disorder) or psychosis spectrum disorders (like schizophrenia). Participants used VR to practice real-life tasks, such as planning a meal. The goal was to see if this training helps with memory, attention, and problem-solving better than a control VR activity.
