Abstract :
The purpose of this poster is to present the performance profile of healthy people in the Virtual Action Planning-Supermarket (VAP-S) as well as the differences in performance between the healthy controls and three clinical populations: stroke survivors, people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and people with Schizophrenia. The findings showed an aging effect as well as an effect of diagnosis on performance and thus point to the construct validity of the test.
