简要总结
This study explicitly tests a multisensory virtual reality experience that combines visual, auditory, and olfactory channels to modulate the stress response in young adults. In addition to visual and auditory stimulation, the study also assesses whether a relaxing olfactory stimulus attenuates this effect. The environment and task remain constant (constant visuals); auditory and olfactory elements are varied. Objective. To evaluate the main effects of varying auditory and olfactory stimuli, as well as their interaction, on variables related to the performance of a quiz-type task in virtual reality.

结局指标
主要结局
NASA Task Load Index
时间窗: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 2 weeks
This test measures perceived mental workload. It has the following dimensions: Mental demand, effort, physical demand, performance, time constraints, and frustration level. Scoring interpretation: Higher scores for mental demand, effort, physical demand, time constraints, and frustration level indicate a greater workload/demand. Higher performance indicates a better experience. Reference: S. G. Hart y L. E. Staveland, "Development of NASA-TLX (Task Load Index): Results of Empirical and Theoretical Research", en Advances in Psychology, vol. 52, North-Holland, 1988, pp. 139-183. doi: 10.1016/S0166-4115(08)62386-9.
Short Stress State Questionnaire (SSSQ)
时间窗: From enrollment to the end of treatment at 2 weeks
Test to measure stress levels. It has three dimensions: engagement, anxiety, and worry. Scoring interpretation: * Higher score in anxiety/worry -\> worse (more stress) * Higher score in engagement -\> better (more involvement/functional activation) Reference: W. S. Helton y K. Näswall, "Short Stress State Questionnaire", Eur. J. Psychol. Assess., vol. 31, n.o 1, pp. 20-30, jun. 2015, doi: 10.1027/1015-5759/a000200.
