Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
In the present study a quasi-experimental study is proposed. This study provides more insights in the experience and acceptance of the use of an VR-application as an adjuvant in the inpatient treatment of AUD patients. The main study parameter is the experience and acceptance to use a VR app by AUD patient in an inpatient treatment program.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Furthermore the study will focus on the level of realism, operationalized in two different types of VR environments (360° recordings versus computer generated virtual worlds) that is experienced by the participants. In addition, the satisfaction and side effects as the level of self-efficacy and of craving experienced by the participants will be measured. The last two will be measured before and immediately after the VR-sessions. The dmCV (a hybrid measure of the SSQ and subjective symptoms of craving to differentiate from both) will be used for the exploration before (first base line measure) and after the three sessions. The satisfaction will be measured only after the last session.	—
