Scenario self-adaptation in virtual reality exposure therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder
Several studies using VR exposure therapy for PTSD have been conducted to date, with promising results. The need for better accuracy of the patient’ s arousal assessment requires aggregation of various measures of arousal, including physiological ones, which may increase mental burden on the therapist. Assessment of the patient’ s arousal automated by the computer may therefore be useful. As the therapist also needs to manipulate user interface to introduce appropriate trigger stimuli in the virtual environment, automated adaptation of VR scenarios in response to the patient’ s level of arousal may alleviate this task. The paper describes architecture of the software that performs mentioned automation according to the rules of graded exposure therapy, and discusses issues for successful implementation of such software.
