Virtual Reality Shows Promise As Depression Treatment
A recent study published in JMIR Mental Health highlights the promising potential of virtual reality (VR) in treating major depressive disorder (MDD). Led by Dr. Margot Paul and her team at Stanford University, the research demonstrates the effectiveness of extended reality (XR)-enhanced behavioral activation (XR-BA) in alleviating symptoms of depression.
MDD affects millions worldwide, and access to evidence-based psychotherapies remains a challenge for many. Traditional treatments often face barriers, prompting researchers to explore innovative solutions. XR, which includes VR, encompasses various immersive technologies involving computer-generated environments that blend physical and digital worlds. Leveraging the immersive power of XR, this study explored XR-BA as a potential game-changer in MDD treatment.
