Abstract

This article focuses on establishing cutoff scores for impaired cognition using the Virtual Kitchen Protocol for Learning and Memory (VKP-LM), a virtual reality-based assessment targeting procedural memory tasks. In a sample of 126 adults, the study evaluated the Immediate Recall (VKP-IR) and Delayed Recall (VKP-DR) components, finding good to excellent discriminatory abilities with area under the curve (AUC) values of 0.788 and 0.855, respectively. The VKP-DR demonstrated higher positive and negative predictive power (86.4% and 90.4%) compared to VKP-IR. The authors note that single-domain measures like procedural memory have limitations in detecting all neurocognitive disorders (NCDs), especially those without amnestic profiles, and recommend further research with larger samples and comparisons to other cognitive measures.
