虽然创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）可以很好地治疗，但由于护理障碍（如耻辱和成本），许多人无法获得所需的治疗。本文提出了一个系统，使患者能够在家里遵循治疗，弥合这一差距。治疗师只是远程参与，以监测进展并作为安全网。有了这个系统，患者可以在数字日记中选择他们的记忆，并在3D WorldBuilder中重新创建它们。在整个治疗过程中，一个虚拟的代理人是存在的，通过会议通知和指导患者，采用基于本体的问题模块回忆创伤记忆，以进一步引起详细的记忆回忆。在一项对前PTSD患者（n = 4）的可用性研究中，发现这些问题对记忆回忆有用。此外，整个系统的可用性得到了积极评价。该系统有可能成为PTSD治疗谱的一个有价值的补充，提供一种由虚拟代理辅助的新型家庭治疗。
Although post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is well treatable, many people do not get the desired treatment due to barriers to care (such as stigma and cost). This paper presents a system that bridges this gap by enabling patients to follow therapy at home. A therapist is only involved remotely, to monitor progress and serve as a safety net. With this system, patients can recollect their memories in a digital diary and recreate them in a 3D WorldBuilder. Throughout the therapy, a virtual agent is present to inform and guide patients through the sessions, employing an ontology-based question module for recollecting traumatic memories to further elicit a detailed memory recollection. In a usability study with former PTSD patients (n = 4), these questions were found useful for memory recollection. Moreover, the usability of the whole system was rated positively. This system has the potential to be a valuable addition to the spectrum of PTSD treatments, offering a novel type of home therapy assisted by a virtual agent.
