VIRTUAL REALITY. AI. CBT: SOCIAL ANXIETY.
[Audio] Exploring virtual reality as a potential solution to reduce the physical mental and emotional effects experienced by those with social anxiety has become increasingly relevant. Virtual reality offers the opportunity to create immersive environments within which individuals can explore and practice their social skills without having to actually leave their home or physical space. Incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy principles into a virtual reality program could provide those suffering from social anxiety with the necessary tools to help reduce symptoms and gain comfort when engaging in social situations. Developing such a program would aid in improving the wellbeing of individuals dealing with social anxiety..
[Audio] Social anxiety can be a debilitating condition having a significant impact on a person's self-confidence and their ability to interact with other people. My Final Project will explore the possible effectiveness of using virtual reality artificial intelligence and cognitive behavioral therapy as treatment options for social anxiety. My research aims to uncover how these three disciplines may work in tandem to reduce or eliminate the symptoms of social anxiety. I am eager to present what I have discovered to you..
[Audio] AI also known as "Artificial Intelligence " is becoming more and more commonplace when it comes to creating virtual reality experiences. AI allows for the creation of complicated scenarios that are impossible to achieve with traditional video game techniques. It can be helpful for addressing social anxiety by providing a more customized experience tailored to a person's needs that can be more effective..
[Audio] My boyfriend expressed concerns at the start of the session including safety and potential anxiety triggers. Virtual Reality and Artificial Intelligence bring fresh approaches to tackling social anxiety but it is necessary to bear in mind that some people may be skeptical of the technology before trying it..
[Audio] I have designed a final project concentrating on virtual reality and cognitive-behavioural therapy to aid in treating social anxiety. My approach utilises an evidence-based approach with Meta Horizon Worlds to design an immersive virtual reality experience. Its capabilities include AI-driven agents that can converse with the user and a narrative-driven experience tailored for the user's needs. The system is able to gauge the user's emotional reaction to the agents and in turn adjust the situation to cater to the user's requirements. With this environment users can practise their social skills which will allow them to build stronger social connections and nurture healthy relationships with others..
[Audio] Meta Horizon Worlds is an innovative virtual reality platform designed to help you reduce social anxiety and build confidence from the comfort of your own home. You can create your own characters customize your avatars and explore a variety of different worlds to join in on group activities and events. The platform is a safe and supportive space to tackle social anxiety and build meaningful connections in a constructive and engaging way..
[Audio] I combined Virtual Reality Artificial Intelligence and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques for my Final Project to help those with social anxiety experience less fear and anxiety in simulated social environments. I monitored my participant's reactions to the virtual reality environments and then used cognitive-behavioral techniques to modify his reactions. By using these tools we were able to gradually build up to more challenging scenarios in a safe controlled setting..
[Audio] Discussing how Virtual Reality can be combined with Artificial Intelligence to create a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (C-B-T--) specifically for Social Anxiety AI technology allows us to constantly monitor user behavior while they interact with a virtual environment to better predict and understand user behavior within the 2020 Virtual Reality landscape. Additionally we will examine the use of "similar images" as a means to replicate real-life experiences and the impact that can have on user behavior..
SIMILAR IMAGES.
[Audio] Today we look at the exciting opportunities offered by Meta Horizon Worlds when it comes to social events. With the use of virtual reality we are now able to extend the possibilities of social interaction into the digital world. These innovative platforms bring together people in a virtual space enabling them to interact and collaborate in ways that were previously impossible. From virtual parties to conferences businesses and individuals alike can now use the Meta Horizon Worlds to expand their social lives beyond physical limitations. So join us and explore the endless possibilities that Meta Horizon Worlds offer on this virtual reality journey..
[Audio] This is an example of how Virtual Reality along with the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy has helped reduce the symptoms of Social Anxiety. Watching the same session with my BF showed me the progress he has made and the progress he can continue to make in the future. It proved that this is a valid and helpful approach to treating Social Anxiety." The power of Virtual Reality combined with the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help lessen Social Anxiety can be seen in the example provided. With these two approaches it is possible to monitor the progress and make strides towards improving the condition. It is a valid and helpful approach to reducing the symptoms of Social Anxiety..
[Audio] VR is increasingly becoming an invaluable asset in industries like psychology allowing patients to engage in a virtual environment that monitors their progress and provides an immersive experience with the potential to better and hasten recovery for anxiety sufferers. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (C-B-T--) delivered through VR has been shown to be particularly effective in treating social anxiety providing exposure to real life scenarios without the associated risk. Virtual Reality Artificial Intelligence and C-B-T are all powerful tools which have the capacity to help those who experience social anxieties. VR gives people the opportunity to confront their worries and fears in a realistic but controlled atmosphere while AI can monitor their progress and offer valuable insights. Furthermore C-B-T helps us to comprehend social anxieties and practice the necessary skills to cope with them leading to a change in behavior and an improved quality of life..
[Audio] Virtual reality technology has a wide range of potential applications in treating social anxiety. I conducted research into different products and platforms currently available as well as the potential benefits of using VR for therapy. One example of a suitable virtual reality experience for people suffering from social anxiety is the Horizon Worlds platform. This platform has been designed to create a safe and secure environment for its users through which they can learn about themselves and build coping strategies. Studies have corroborated its efficacy in providing relief from the symptoms of social anxiety. AI is another technology that could be implemented in virtual reality therapy in order to provide tailored solutions to users according to their individual needs. These solutions could be used to help manage their anxiety levels and reduce its severity. All in all virtual reality and AI could be promising tools in providing successful treatment for social anxiety..
