Ús de la realitat virtual pel tractament de fòbies

Abstract

Les fòbies són un trastorn comú de l'ansietat que afectes a milions de persones d'arreu del món i que rarament són tractades. Gairebé tots sabem d'algú que té alguna por irracional, si no la tenim nosaltres mateixos, i aquest treball pretén donar una solució a la gent que pateix de talassofòbia, la por al mar. Potser per a alguns aquesta por sols suposa un obstacle més gran que per d'altres, però, en qualsevol cas, limita la seva capacitat de fer activitats que involucrin cossos d'aigua profunds. Els sistemes de realitat virtual són cada cop més populars en tots els àmbits, especialment ara que el Metavers ha passat a ser primera plana en telenotícies i diaris, prometent la nova tecnologia d'interacció amb la xarxa i el contingut virtual. No obstant, la realitat virtual s'ha estat utilitzant per altres propòsits des de ja fa temps, i un d'aquests és com a eina de suport a la teràpia d'exposició, el tractament més comú per a les fòbies. Aquest treball, doncs, es centra en crear un programa en realitat virtual que serveixi com a una eina més per a que els terapeutes puguin dur a terme la teràpia d'exposició per a la talassofòbia des de la seva consulta.

Phobias are a common anxiety disorder that affects millions of people around the world, but rarely are they treated. Almost everyone knows of someone who has some irrational fear if we do not have it ourselves. This project aims to provide a solution for people suffering from thalassophobia, the fear of the sea. Even though this fear is an obstacle that may hinder some more than others, it limits one's ability to do activities that involve deep bodies of water regardless. Virtual reality systems are increasingly popular across the board, especially now that the Metaverse has become front page in news channels and newspapers alike. It promises a new way of interacting with the web and virtual content and it is expected to become even more popular in the next few years. However, virtual reality has been used for other purposes for some time now. One of the uses it has been given is supporting exposure therapy treatments, the most common practise for phobias. This thesis, then, presents the making of a virtual reality program that serves as another tool for therapists to carry out exposure therapy for thalassophobia from their own office.
