Meta Quest 「Augmented Food Exposure」

こ‏の‎ 「Augmented Food Exposure 」ア‏プリ‎は‏、‎過食症やむちゃ食いなどの特定の摂食障害において、むちゃ食いのエピソードにつながる 「感情的摂食 」と呼ばれる特定の否定的な感情反応を、メンタルヘルス専門家が測定することを可能にする。こ‏の‎ア‏プリ‎は‏、‎2つのバーチャル環境内に提示されたさまざまなバーチャル食品に触れるだけでなく、手やジョイパッドを使ったインタラクションも提供する。患者はまず、バーチャル食品に対する渇望や渇望反応のレベルを評価し‏、‎感情反応階層を決定する。その後、6回のセッションの中で‏、‎専門家が5次元のリッカート尺度を用いて、患者の情動反応を測定する。

The "Augmented Food Exposure" app allows mental health professionals to measure that specific negative emotional response, called "emotional eating", which leads to bingeing episodes in certain eating disorders, such as bulimia and binge eating. The app provides not only exposure to different virtual foods presented within 2 virtual environments, but also to interact with hands or joypads. The patient is first invited to evaluate his craving or craving response level with respect to virtual foods, determining an emotional response hierarchy, in which the 13 foods that elicit greater activation within the 2 available immersive environments are selected. Subsequently, within 6 sessions, the professional will measure the patient's emotional response, starting from the food that determines a reaction of lesser intensity, up to that of greater intensity, using a 5-dimensional Likert scale.
