Abstract

In this paper, we design and implement an ADHD diagnostic rating scale algorithm and virtual reality- based digital treatment by combining virtual reality technology that enables multiple access based on specialized medical data. The VR ADHD digital treatment to be implemented is intended to be applied directly to diagnosis and treatment of child/adolescent ADHD by applying various psychiatric treatment technologies. In order to evaluate the usability of the digital therapeutic agent developed in this paper, an expert group consisting of 2 males and 12 females "targeted counseling psychology majors at the Asian Dementia Center once a day for 3 weeks, ADHD VR-based digital therapeutics for children Experienced and usability evaluation conducted. As a final result of this thesis, it was possible to develop attentional concentration ability, working memory improvement ability, and impulsive control ability in four games of digital therapy, and it was possible to confirm significant results that can be expected to have ADHD therapeutic effects.
