Virtual Reality Application for OCD Assessment

This paper provides an overview of a fully implemented Virtual Reality (VR) application which aims to support the assessment of the most common subtypes of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD): cleaning and checking behaviours. The VR application consists of a tool for the therapist to select differing levels of tasks for the participants to fulfil within an interactive 3D virtual kitchen. Participants’ assessment will be taking place at tasks completion level whilst their behaviour will be analysed through continuous recording of physiological measures and self-reporting questionnaires.
