3DVR芳香療法與長者腦波律動之關係

The relationship between 3DVR aromatherapy and brain wave rhythm in the elderly

研究背景：追求整體健康已蔚為全球趨勢，有許多不同的輔助及整合療法療法，其中，芳香療法已被證實具有改善心理情緒及生理功能的效果。隨著科技發展，3DVR已被廣泛應用在教育與醫療相關產業，且頗具成效。本研究透過虛擬實境VR課程與芳香療法創新結合，可解決實體芳香療法在操作上時間及空間的限制與困難，經由科學的方法驗證精油對於老人的身心健康效益影響。研究方法：研發8個3DVR芳香療法活動單元，邀請機構老人參與，探討3DVR芳香療法介入後，觀察腦波的變化。結果：施行3DVR芳香療法介入後，在腦波觀察上略有變化，但不顯著，在課程介入後，第四週在專注力部分有正向提升者有15人，佔檢測人數的53.57%，第八週在專注力部分有正向提升者有17人，佔檢測人數的60.71%。將來若需作為客觀介入指標的參考，則建議研究設計與測量宜有所調整。討論：在整體腦波曲線呈現向上趨勢代表該項狀態是逐次向上提升，反之，向下調降即是受到抑制，以專注度與放鬆度而言，在8週課程中，專注力出現上升趨勢，放鬆度則是下降趨勢，因此，發現老年人在專注力逐次向上提升，增加專注力；而放鬆度逐次下降，受到抑制，代表在面對課程時能以較不放鬆的態度學習課程，因此能更為專心、專注在課程當中。

"Background: The pursuit of overall health has become a global trend. There are many different adjuvant and integrated therapies. Among them, aromatherapy has been proved to have the effect of improving psychological, emotional, and physiological functions. With the development of science and technology, 3dvr has been widely used in education and medical related industries. Through the innovative combination of virtual reality VR course and aromatherapy, this study can solve the time and space constraints and difficulties in the operation of solid aromatherapy and verify the impact of essential oil on the physical and mental health of the elderly through scientific methods.Method: Develop 8 3DVR aromatherapy activity units, invite the elderly from institutions to participate, discuss the changes of brain waves after 3DVR aromatherapy intervention.Result: After the intervention of 3dvr aromatherapy, there was a slight change in brain wave observation, but it was not significant. After the intervention of the course, 15 people had a positive improvement in focus in the fourth week, accounting for 53.57%, and 17 people had a positive improvement in focus in the eighth week, accounting for 60.71%. If it needs to be used as a reference for objective intervention indicators in the future, it is suggested that the research design and measurement should be adjusted.Discussion：The upward trend in the overall brain wave curve indicates that the state is gradually upward, on the contrary, downward adjustment is inhibited. In terms of concentration and relaxation, in the 8-week course, the concentration is upward, and the relaxation is downward. Therefore, it is found that the elderly increases their concentration and increase their concentration step by step; The degree of relaxation decreases gradually and is restrained, which means that when facing the course, you can study the course with a less relaxed attitude, so you can concentrate more on the course."
