Cognitive function

  1. Funsat improves cognitive function in humans (d > .72).

    “There were significant time effects for Composite cognitive performance and VRFCAT time to completion, with effect sizes for changes from baseline to 30-day follow-up for the different groups all larger than d>.55 for the VRFCAT completion time and all larger than d=.72 for changes in composite cognition”
