Towards an Experiment Planner for Cognitive Studies in Virtual Heritage Environments. A Pilot Study.

Abstract
The increasing role of Virtual Reality in psychology introduces new methods for replicable experiments and enhances techniques for analysing human behaviours. Despite the technological advancements, a flexible and user-friendly approach for researchers and psychologists is still lacking, making it challenging to meet their specific needs and requirements. This paper describes the design, development and testing of a prototype for configuring and managing experiments in virtual sessions in cultural 3D spaces. The prototype represents the first version of a future tool dedicated to the planning of assessment sessions in Virtual Heritage environments. To test this prototype we have used the Digital Twin of a physical Exhibition dedicated to Aldrovandi.
