研究人员和临床医生最近开始使用虚拟现实(VR)来创建沉浸式和交互式的线索暴露范例。本研究旨在评估个人线索暴露疗法(CET)的有效性，使用吸烟相关VR线索(Smoking-VR)作为戒烟治疗，并与安慰剂-VR(中性线索)治疗进行比较。样本包括寻求治疗的健康吸烟者，他们接受了两周一次的认知行为团体治疗(CBT)加上吸烟-VR CET或安慰剂-VR CET(随机分配)。吸烟VR CET参与者的戒烟率高于安慰剂VR CET参与者(P=0.015)。吸烟-VR CET组的参与者报告说，在治疗结束时，每天吸烟的人数明显少于安慰剂-VR CET组的参与者(P=0.034)。这些数据表明，与吸烟相关的VR CET可能有助于提高CBT治疗烟草依赖的疗效。
Researchers and clinicians have recently begun using Virtual Reality (VR) to create immersive and interactive cue exposure paradigms. The current study aimed to assess the effectiveness of individual cue exposure therapy (CET), using smoking-related VR cues (smoking-VR) as a smoking cessation treatment compared to a placebo-VR (neutral cue) treatment. The sample consisted of healthy treatment-seeking cigarette smokers, who underwent bi-weekly cognitive behavioral group therapy (CBT) plus either smoking-VR CET or placebo-VR CET (random assignment). Smoking-VR CET participants had a higher quit rate than placebo-VR CET participants (P = 0.015). Smoking-VR CET treated participants also reported smoking significantly fewer cigarettes per day at the end of treatment than placebo-VR CET treated participants (P = 0.034). These data indicate that smoking-related VR CET may prove useful in enhancing the efficacy of CBT treatment for tobacco dependence.
