Abstract
This article explores the serious application of virtual reality (VR) for assessing spatial memory, focusing on the Corsi test. Developed using the Unity game engine, this application allows for more convenient parameter modification and faster evaluation through digital iterations. The use of VR technology enhances precision, reliability, and user immersion. This article details the developmental stages and psychophysiological responses of participants performing the task in VR. Results from a trial with 14 participants indicated reduced heart rate and improved outcomes compared with traditional methods. This highlights the potential of VR integration to enhance the accuracy, flexibility, and participant comfort in assessment procedures.
