Training in a comprehensive everyday-like virtual reality environment compared to computerized cognitive training for patients with depression

作者：

Highlights：

• A novel real-life-like VR cognitive training for depressed patients was evaluated.

• Transfer effects were assessed by diverse cognitive and functional measures.

• There was no benefit of the naturalistic VR-setting compared to a PC-desktop setup.

• Exploratory analyses indicated small condition-dependent cognitive improvements.
