“…As mentioned above, exposure therapy has been shown to be efficacious in the treatment of anxiety disorders; however, there is still room for improvement, and several lines of re- Additionally, a further study [75] explored the differential role of perceptual versus conceptual cues (fear-related information) in fear activation/reduction in claustrophobia and spider phobia. Results showed that perceptual cues produced higher fear activation and greater fear habituation.…”

“…Another case series demonstrated efficacy of VRE for specific phobias in young people with autism spectrum disorder [53]. While not a clinical trial, a study on participants with claustrophobia demonstrated that perceptual information presented in a virtual environment (e.g., seeing a door close on you in a virtual room) effectively led to an increase in the activation of self-reported and physiological fear, suggested that VRE might be effective in this population as well [54]. While together these studies are promising, more controlled studies with larger sample sizes are needed to test VRE's effectiveness in a wider range of specific phobias.…”

“…In this context, virtual reality (VR) has proven useful as a means of investigating emotional processes, and as a new medium of exposure therapy for anxiety disorders ( Mühlberger and Pauli, 2011 ; Diemer et al, 2015 ). The advantage of VR technology in the investigation of emotional reactions is that perceptual and conceptual information can be easily separated ( Peperkorn et al, 2014 ; Shiban et al, 2016 ). Still, studies investigating the effects of tactile fear cues in VR are rare.…”
