Development of Virtual Reality-based Interventions to Strengthen Cognitive Skillsets Related to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): A Pilot Phase I and Randomized Controlled Phase II Trial

Floreo VR is a novel VR-based cognitive training therapy for ADHD. It incorporates multiple learning modules, each of which targets a neuropsychological domain relevant to ADHD (inhibitory control, working memory, temporal processing, processing speed). The demands of the training intervention adapt to the subject s practice-driven improvements in performance. Specifically, when the subject is deemed to perform adequately well at a given level of difficulty, the training adapts by presenting a more challenging difficulty. This adaptation to the subject s performance is designed to allow for continued incremental improvements in the trained domains. The VR games take place in a spaceship themed environment. The VR training is designed to be used at home, under the supervision of a parent.
