Seniors fight depression with virtual reality glasses

NCT ID NCT07188623

Summary

This Stanford University study is testing whether using a virtual reality (VR) headset can help make standard depression therapy more effective and engaging for adults aged 65 and older. Participants will work with a therapist to plan enjoyable activities and then try some of them in VR, tracking their mood before and after. The main goal is to see if this VR-enhanced approach is practical and acceptable, while also checking if it helps reduce depression symptoms.
