Simulating Dementia with a Virtual Reality App
20 April 2018
This is an online study investigating people’s experience of a brief dementia simulation using a virtual reality app. We are interested in people’s attitudes towards dementia and towards providing support for people with dementia. Participants will be asked to complete an online survey (10-15 minutes) and to experience a brief virtual reality dementia simulation (5 minutes) via their smart-phone/ tablet. You do not need to know anyone with dementia to take part.
