Virtual Reality- Working Memory Retraining — VR-WMR  

Alcohol Use Disorder Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effects of Active Virtual Reality Working Memory Retraining on Heavy Drinking Veterans With Mild Traumatic Brain Injury

Clinical Trial Summary

This study will establish the acceptability and feasibility of enrolling and retaining heavy drinking Veterans with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in an 8-week, randomized cross-over design trial of active VR working memory retraining (WMR). This study will also seek to establish the efficacy of active VR-WMR to increase performance in executive function.

Clinical Trial Description

The investigators will employ a physically active VR working memory retraining (VR-WMR) regimen utilizing components of Blue Goji VR Active Gaming. The synthesis of physical activity and an enriched VR environment is expected to yield superior working memory training stemming from greater neurological activation. This enhanced working memory training task will result in greater motivation to engage and complete a training regimen, thus fostering greater improvements in executive function than traditional working memory training tasks; ultimately resulting in increased self-control over alcohol use and other high-risk behaviors. ;
