<p>To investigate which adjustments are necessary for the upcoming randomized<br /><br>controlled trial, different evaluations are organized. Before the treatment<br /><br>will start, we will have two focus groups: one with detainees (maximum of 5 in<br /><br>one group) and one with therapists (maximum of 5 in one group) to discuss the<br /><br>VRAPT protocol and ask feedback on the content, the difficulty and the<br /><br>suitability of the protocol. The focus group will take place once and will last<br /><br>a maximum of 2,5 hours.<br /><br>After the treatment starts, every session will be evaluated with the Session<br /><br>Rating Scale (SRS) and additional questions for participants and the trainers. </p><br>
