dc.description.abstract | Balance disorders can lead to severe consequences for older adults. Computerized posturography offers an objective assessment of balance, and VR can help to increase its ecological validity. We investigate to what extent a posturographic VR bus ride is ecologically valid and suitable to assess balance. Sixteen healthy adult participants underwent the VR bus ride. Participants felt a moderate level of presence, and the simulation elicited significant postural changes responses, which correlated with validated posturography assessments of the participants. The results support the viability of our tool for balance assessment in the context of a meaningful activity. | pt_PT |
