简要总结
The goal of this study is to evaluate one session with exposure with Virtual Reality (VR) in in children and adolescents, aged 8-18 years with an anxiety disorder. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- What are the expectations of children and adolescents and therapists with VR exposure?
- What is the acceptability of the VR session (positive and negative effects)?
- What are possible working mechanisms of VR exposure? During ongoing treatment, participants will receive a session of exposure with VR.
详细描述
Cognitive behavioral therapy is an effective treatment for anxiety disorders, with exposure as the most important working ingredient. Exposure therapy can be challenging to implement in face-to-face settings. Virtual reality (VR) has emerged as a promising tool for delivering exposure therapy.
In the current study, the researchers will examine children and adolescents that will participate in a single session of VR exposure during their regular treatment (n=30). Willingness to participate in exposure in vivo will be assessed directly before and directly after the session. During the session anxiety, idiosyncratic expectations, and self-efficacy will be assessed. Expectations will be measured before the session and acceptability after the session.
