Virtual reality (VR) has demonstrated its potential across a wide range of applications, particularly in education, healthcare, and psychology. Within neuropsychology, VR-based research on cognitive function assessment treatment is gaining momentum, leading to the development innovative neuropsychological VR paradigms.

Executive functions (EFs) are essential cognitive processes involved in concentration, planning, decision-making, and impulse control during adolescence. Dysfunction (ED) can lead to significant academic socio-emotional difficulties, particularly with impairments emotion regulation (ER). This study aims assess a virtual reality (VR) training intervention on EFs, ER, internalizing symptoms adolescents at risk for ED. Thirty-eight aged 12–14 years, identified as being moderate high ED, were randomly assigned two groups. The experimental group (n = 22) received gamified VR training, while the 16) nature-based relaxation training. Both interventions lasted five weeks, twice week 30 min each. Pre- post-assessments included ER skills, symptoms, performance measures. Two-way mixed ANOVAs showed × time interactions (p < 0.05) measures of depression symptoms. reductions these compared group. Significant main effects also found some groups experienced reduced anxiety, improved emotional functioning, was effective reducing both promising results improving skills performance. findings demonstrate preliminary VR-based psychological well-being ED suggest that integrating technologies into educational settings effectively address challenges faced by students.
