Virtual Reality-Based Assessment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder and Comorbid Symptoms in Children: Framework Development and Standardization Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

As virtual reality (VR) technology becomes increasingly prevalent, its potential for collecting objective behavioral data in psychiatric settings has been widely recognized. However, the lack of standardized methodologies limits reproducibility and data integration across studies, particularly in assessing attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and associated behaviors, such as irritability and aggression.

Objective

This study examines the use of VR-based movement data to operationalize core ADHD symptoms (hyperactivity and inattention) and comorbid disruptive behaviors (irritability and aggression), aiming to identify reproducible and clinically actionable metrics and evaluate their explanatory power for each symptom domain to assess the overall use of t
