Virtual Reality Self-help Treatment for Aviophobia: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Virtual Reality Self-help Treatment for Aviophobia: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Aviophobia stems from a range of subfears and reasons for fear [2]. Anxiety toward flying can be rooted in a fear of heights (acrophobia) or a fear of small or inescapable spaces (claustrophobia). Such anxiety can also result from fears of a plane crashing or the inability to have control over a flight experience [2]. Aviophobia, as well as other specific phobias, stands the risk of becoming chronic if left untreated. It is also connected with the comorbid development of other mental health problems [4].
