Summary

The current proposal aims to 1) develop a technical platform and implementation plan for the delivery of a virtual reality-based mindful movement therapy (VR-MMT) protocol for older adults; and 2) conduct a clinical trial to examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an 8-week, 16-session module VR-MMT intervention for this population. The findings of this study will help us to identify engagement barriers and refine the intervention contents as well as the study protocol necessary for the preparation of grant applications to conduct a controlled clinical trial. This study is innovative and high impact as this is the first study to examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a VR-MMT intervention that could potentially ameliorate cognitive and mobility decline and promote psychological wellbeing in older adults by combining a widely accessible technology and creative embodiment-based approach.
