Background and purpose The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been associated with olfactory dysfunction. persistent symptoms of anosmia or hyposmia were in previous studies the development memory impairment mood disturbances. We aimed to investigate association between chronicity reported dysfunction subjective objective cognitive performance long-COVID patients explore whether their emotional are related cognition. Methods One hundred twenty-eight participants recruited. Reported...

Short-term memory can be defined as the capacity for holding a small amount of information in mind an active state short period time. Although some instruments have been developed to study spatial short-term real environments, there are no that specifically designed assess visuospatial attractive way children. In this paper, we present ARSM (Augmented Reality Spatial Memory) task, first Augmented task involves user's movement healthy The experimental procedure was children's skill retain...

This paper presents the MnemoCity task, which is a 3D application that introduces user into totally virtual environment to evaluate spatial short-term memory. A study has been carried out validate task for assessment of memory in children, by comparing children’s performance developed with current approaches. total 160 children participated study. The incorporates two types interaction: one based on standard interaction and another natural involving physical movement user. There were no...

Neuroanatomy is difficult for psychology students because of spatial visualization and the relationship among brain structures. Some technologies have been implemented to facilitate learning anatomy using three-dimensional (3D) contents. Augmented reality (AR) a promising technology in this field. A mobile AR application provide morphological functional information was developed. sample 67 neuropsychology completed tests visuospatial ability, anatomical knowledge, goals, experience with...

Long-COVID describes the long-term effects of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In long-COVID patients, neuropsychological alterations are frequently reported symptoms. Research points to medial temporal lobe dysfunction and its association with anosmia in patients. This study aims investigate acquisition consolidation declarative procedural memory patients explore whether is related these dissociated functions.Forty-two participants 30 controls (C) were recruited. The sample was divided...

Object-location memory (OLM) is a type of declarative for spatial information and consists the individual's ability to establish accurate associations between objects their locations. Long-COVID describes long-term effects COVID-19 disease. patients show medial temporal lobe dysfunction neuropsychological alterations affecting memory. This study aimed assess OLM in group patients, n=66, Control healthy individuals with similar age sex composition, n=21, using an immersive virtual reality...

The use of virtual reality-based tasks for studying memory has increased considerably. Most the studies that have looked at child population factors influence performance on such been focused cognitive variables. However, little attention paid to impact non-cognitive skills. In present paper, we tested 52 typically-developing children aged 5 12 years in a object-location task. task assessed their spatial short-term location three objects city. environment was presented using 3D application...

Spatial short-term memory is defined as the limited ability of people to retain and remember location elements for short periods time. In this paper, we present first AR app based on SLAM (Simultaneous Localization Mapping) assess spatial memory. A total 55 participants were involved in a study remembering real place where four virtual objects located environment. The divided into two groups: ARGroup (the learned environment an adaptation phase using AR) NoARGroup by looking at photographs)....

The potential of augmented reality (AR) technology for the study spatial memory and orientation is a new research field. AR defines systems that attempt to enhance user's experience with physical world. In our app, we sense sight by adding interactive 3D elements real environment. Our app can be used in any environment so experimental conditions during tasks way which an individual navigates are similar those life. With AR, experimenter has high level control task store participant's...

The assessment of human spatial short-term memory has mainly been performed using visual stimuli and less frequently auditory stimuli. This paper presents a framework for the development SLAM-based Augmented Reality applications memory. An AR mobile application was developed this type involving tactile by our framework. task to be carried out with is divided into two phases: 1) learning phase, in which participants physically walk around room have remember location simple geometrical shapes;...
