Abstract: This paper presents the EVACOG project that aims to investigate the usefulness of Virtual Environments (VEs) in cognitive assessment. Our objective is to evaluate the cognitive and/or behavioral abilities of patients with brain lesions in scenarios implying the planning and the execution of everyday tasks such as driving a car or preparing a cup of coffee. In this paper we describe a simple and effective VE (a kitchen) designed to assess patient’s ability to prepare a cup of coffee. We focus on the assessment results obtained with eight patients with Alzheimer’s disease which were compared to healthy elderly subjects. Participants were instructed to prepare a cup of coffee in the virtual kitchen. Results revealed significant impairments in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. Results of this study support the use the virtual kitchen to assess everyday life activities among persons with Alzheimer’s disease.
