Summary

This study tested a new virtual reality program designed to help teenagers who were hospitalized for suicidal thoughts practice skills for returning to school. The program, called PrESR, lets teens experience realistic school scenarios with a therapist's guidance while still in the hospital. The study involved 54 teens and focused on whether the program was feasible and acceptable, not on whether it worked. Researchers measured recruitment rates, completion rates, and feedback from participants and clinicians.
