Virtual reality (VR) head-mounted displays (HMD) appear to be effectiveresearch tools, which may address the problem of ecological validity inneuropsychological testing. However, their widespread implementation ishindered by VR induced symptoms and effects (VRISE) and the lack of skills inVR software development. This study offers guidelines for the development of VRsoftware in cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology, by describing anddiscussing the stages of the development of Virtual Reality Everyday AssessmentLab (VR-EAL), the first neuropsychological battery in immersive VR. Techniquesfor evaluating cognitive functions within a realistic storyline are discussed.The utility of various assets in Unity, software development kits, and othersoftware are described so that cognitive scientists can overcome challengespertinent to VRISE and the quality of the VR software. In addition, this pilotstudy attempts to evaluate VR-EAL in accordance with the necessary criteria forVR software for research purposes. The VR neuroscience questionnaire (VRNQ;Kourtesis et al., 2019b) was implemented to appraise the quality of the threeversions of VR-EAL in terms of user experience, game mechanics, in-gameassistance, and VRISE. Twenty-five participants aged between 20 and 45 yearswith 12-16 years of full-time education evaluated various versions of VR-EAL.The final version of VR-EAL achieved high scores in every sub-score of the VRNQand exceeded its parsimonious cut-offs. It also appeared to have better in-gameassistance and game mechanics, while its improved graphics substantiallyincreased the quality of the user experience and almost eradicated VRISE. Theresults substantially support the feasibility of the development of effectiveVR research and clinical software without the presence of VRISE during a60-minute VR session.
