Digital Ergonomics of NavegApp, a Novel Serious Game for Spatial Cognition Assessment: Content Validity and Usability Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Alzheimer disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia worldwide. With aging populations and limited access to effective treatments, there is an urgent need for innovative markers to support timely preventive interventions. Emerging evidence highlights spatial cognition (SC) as a valuable source of cognitive markers for AD. This study presents NavegApp, a serious game (SG) designed to assess 3 key components of SC, which show potential as cognitive markers for the early detection of AD.

Objective

This study aimed to determine the content validity and usability perception of NavegApp across multiple groups of interest.

Methods

A multistep process integrating methodologies from software engineering, psychometrics, and health measurement was implemented to va
