Virtual Reality Training in Occupational Rehabilitation
Sponsor: Molde University College
Summary
Work-related attention bias modification training and virtual reality training in occupational rehabilitation is a multisite pilot study. The quantitative aim of this pilot study is to compared virtual reality (VR) training and attention bias modication (ABM) training to investigate whether the different training forms result in different results measured with work-related outcomes and cognitive outcomes. The qualitative aim of this pilot study is to investigate the patients' experiences with the usage of VR. Three rehabilitation insitutions will be recruiting patients participating in occupational rehabilitation, and the study will compare the outcomes of work-related interventions with and without the addition of ABM or VR training. The study seeks to determine if these interventions can improve work ability, reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, and change attentional bias from negative to positive stimuli.

Interventions
Virtual Reality with Beat Saber
The VR activity used in the intervention was an add-on activity that did not replace any other activities in the programme. The off-the-shelf product Beat Saber (Beat Games, Prague, The Czech Republic) is the VR game of choice in our study. In collaboration with the participating clinics a systematic VR activity plan will be developed. This includes the selection of games and designing a plan that is interesting and motivating both for patients and clinicians.
