“…51 Historically, this development could be understood as a reaction to the rise of cognitivism as the main explanatory model for mental processes; for example (and most prominently in the work of Noam Chomsky), in linguistics. 52 Although the debate on the relative merits and demerits of both approaches has engulfed philosophy (particularly phenomenology), cognitive science and psychology for many years, we also find promising attempts to identify cross-fertilizing aspects, rather than further deepening and entrenching the scholarly divide. 53 In the realm of VR studies, however, it seems safe to say that concepts pertaining to the 4E framework for studying the effects of VR on user experience and behavior are far more widely used than cognitivist models.…”

Highly immersive virtual reality (VR) systems have been introduced into the consumer market in recent years. The improved technological capabilities of these systems as well as the combination with biometric sensors, for example electroencephalography (EEG), in a closed-loop hybrid VR-EEG, opens up a range of new potential medical applications. This article first provides an overview of the past and current clinical applications of VR systems in neurology and psychiatry and introduces core concepts in neurophilosophy and VR research (such as agency, trust, presence, and others). Then, important adverse effects of highly immersive VR simulations and the ethical implications of standalone and hybrid VR systems for therapy in neurology and psychiatry are highlighted. These new forms of VR-based therapy may strengthen patients in exercising their autonomy. At the same time, however, these emerging systems present ethical challenges, for example in terms of moral and legal accountability in interactions involving "intelligent" hybrid VR systems. A user-centered approach that is informed by the target patients' needs and capabilities could help to build beneficial systems for VR therapy.
