Summary

This study aims to evaluate the safety and acceptability of a basic neuro-technological intervention in the treatment of adolescents with Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD). Our technology will deliver a mindfulness-based anxiety regulation intervention through a neuro- / bio-feedback-based virtual reality (VR) game interface that is driven by a novel algorithm.

Conditions

  • Generalised Anxiety Disorder

Interventions

DEVICE

Neuro-technological Intervention

During the intervention sessions, participants will don a head-mounted VR display set and a mobile EEG-biosensor. Each session will begin with a brief audio-guided mindfulness practice, follow by a 15 minutes VR game. Game performances will be influenced by individual's level of anxiety arousal and ability to regulate it.
