Overview

Cross-sectional research identifies job stress and resistance to change influencing counselors' acceptance of virtual reality exposure therapy.

Key Points

  • Performance expectancy and social influence are key predictors of counselors' intention to adopt virtual reality exposure therapy.
  • Younger counselors are more affected by job stress and resistance to change than older counselors when considering VRET use.
  • The study utilized a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative surveys and thematic analysis of open-ended responses.
  • Counselors prefer using virtual reality exposure therapy as a supplementary tool alongside traditional therapy rather than a replacement.
