Event Abstract Back to Event The realism of modified VR Iraq with previously deployed United States of America air men Alan Maiers1*, Major M. Baker2, G. Regor1 and Major M. Martel2 1 Brooke Army Medical Center Warrior Resiliency Program, United States 2 USAF Lackland Air Force Base, Warrior Resiliency Program, United States Repeated combat deployments have been linked with increased rates of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among USA military service members. Exposure therapy has been shown to be an effective treatment for this disorder. Virtual reality simulation has been integrated with exposure therapy and is being investigated regarding its efficacy in treatment of PTSD. This study is a replication of a previous study by Reger et al (in print) who examined the realism of virtual reality simulation presented in Virtual Iraq to actual experiences of US Army services members who returned from deployment to Iraq. This study focused on the realism of experiences for USA Air Men deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan for a modified version of Iraq World.
