Enhancing the Ecological Validity of fMRI Memory Research Using Virtual Reality

Enhancing the Ecological Validity of fMRI Memory Research Using Virtual Reality

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a powerful research tool to understand the neural underpinnings of human memory. However, as memory is known to be context-dependent, differences in contexts between naturalistic settings and the MRI scanner environment may potentially confound neuroim...
