Studies (Desrichard & Kopetz, 2005) have shown that compared to younger adults, older adults are sensitive to variations in the environment where the assessment of their performance takes place.

By leveraging virtual reality technology, the project aims to investigate the effects of contextual variability on the cognitive performance of older adults, in 3D interactive environments.

This project is a UNIGE collaboration between Prof. David Rudrauf (MMEF Lab), Prof. Olivier Desrichard (GREPS) and Dr. Julie Péron (CENlab).
