Article Synopsis
- Virtual Reality (VR) helps people understand how they feel about their bodies by using a technique called Body Illusion, which makes them feel like an artificial body is their own.
- Most past studies on this have focused on women, so this study aimed to understand how Body Illusion affects men compared to women.
- The results showed that women felt more dissatisfied with their bodies and often thought they were bigger than they were, while men only changed how they viewed their waist size without feeling different about their body satisfaction.
Background: Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) has shown promise in the assessment, understanding, and treatment of eating disorders (EDs), providing a dynamic platform for clinical innovation. This scoping review aims to synthesize the recent advancements and applications of IVR in addressing these complex psychological disorders.
Methods: This review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis Protocols, focusing on studies published in the past five years.
