Pilot Study of Cognitive Behavior Therapy With Role-plays in Virtual Reality for Children With Behavior Problems
This small pilot trial is testing a cognitive behavioral therapy program called YourSkills for children aged 10 to 16 who show anger or disruptive behavior. The therapy sessions include role-play practice inside virtual reality. Researchers want to know whether the program is feasible and shows early signs of helping. This is a pilot study, meaning it is a very early-stage test focused on whether the approach is workable, not a definitive proof that it works.
You may qualify if
- Child/youth aged between 10-16 years with increased levels of anger or disruptive behaviors,
- The child's behavior problems is elevated on questions targeting behavioral problems (SDQ conduct problems subscale).
You're excluded if
- Child/youth is below 10 years or above 16 years of age
- No increased levels of anger or disruptive behaviors
- Child/youth is diagnosed with autism, serious depression, psychosis, eating disorder, or self-harm behaviors
- Child/youth has epilepsy or migraine
