“…Activities initiated by the patients could be induced by well-designed HCI, however, the feedback in the virtual environments is considerably deficient (most of the VR systems simulate auditory, visual and vibration), and somatosensory simulation is a challenge [5]. Exploring the value of activity in IVR, compared with that in a real environment, is meaningful for this technology used as an alternative approach [13]. Brock and colleagues investigated the movement kinematic and postural control differences by virtual and real golf putting in undergraduate students, the results presented that compared with pure VR, haptic condition promoted the swing kinematics, and the movement pattern in the virtual environment was closer to the performance in the real environment [14].…”

Instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) training is critical in clinical practice of occupational therapy (OT) for stroke patients. In the conventional approaches, the therapists simulate various occupational tasks in their healthcare settings or reach their nearby real circumstances for the training. As an alternative technology, immersive virtual reality (IVR) has been used widely in stroke rehabilitation for years; however, limited research has compared occupational performances between virtual and real environments. Our team has established a novel IVR shopping training system for stroke rehabilitation. We recruited 10 stroke patients from our department to test the system. All patients attempted to implement shopping tasks in the virtual and real environments respectively. The Wilcoxon test showed no significant differences between virtual and real environments in memory capacity and time-consuming for implementing tasks, and memory capacities in virtual and real environments presented excellent correlations with the IADL assessment. This study suggests that IVR shopping tasks can be used as an alternative approach in rehabilitation when there is limited resource for implementing shopping training in a real environment, while the psychometric property, clinical effect and the effect transferred to the real environment induced by virtual training require further study.
