VRSPi: towards a neuroadaptive VR exposure therapy system for spider phobia

Future work should address the clinical integration of neuroadaptive exposure systems. In practice, EEG-based adaptations must be reliable, stable across sessions, and robust to artifacts so therapists can use them as decision-support tools rather than replacements for clinical judgment. Conservative thresholds, transparent logic, and clinician override options may be essential. While this work focuses on feasibility, these practical factors are key to translating neuroadaptive VRET into usable therapies.

Abstract

Future work should address the clinical integration of neuroadaptive exposure systems. In practice, EEG-based adaptations must be reliable, stable across sessions, and robust to artifacts so therapists can use them as decision-support tools rather than replacements for clinical judgment. Conservative thresholds, transparent logic, and clinician override options may be essential. While this work focuses on feasibility, these practical factors are key to translating neuroadaptive VRET into usable therapies.
