Assessing the Impact of VR-Based Observational Mindfulness Meditation on Stress Reduction in Adults (NCT06704282)
Effects of VR-Based Mindfulness Observational Meditation for Stress Reduction in Adults : Randomized Controlled Trial
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study investigates the impact of a mindfulness-based intervention using virtual reality (VR) and artificial intelligence (AI) coaching on stress reduction. Participants will engage in VR-based observation mindfulness activities guided by an AI coach. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of this intervention compared to a standard relaxation process by measuring self-reported stress levels, physiological biomarkers (e.g., heart rate), and participant satisfaction. The research could inform the development of future digital mental health interventions.
