VR 을 이용한 EMDR 의 양측성 안구운동이 우울증 감소에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구: 모니터와 HMD 를 이용한 베타파 비교 연구 A study on the effects of bilateral eye movement in VR-based EMDR on depression reduction: A comparative analysis of beta waves using monitor and HMD
Description
본 연구는 가상현실(VR)을 활용한 안구운동 탈감작 및 재처리(EMDR) 치료에서 양측성 안구운동이 우울증 감소에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 하였다. 경기도 소재 대학생 16명을 대상으로 CES-D 점수가 25점 이상인 자를 선정하여 모니터 기반과 HMD 기반 EMDR 치료를 각각 실시하였다. 치료 전후의 뇌파(베타파) 변화를 측정하였으며, SPSS 27을 활용한 대응표본 t-검정을 통해 분석하였다. 분석 결과, HMD 기반 EMDR 치료(M = 4.67)가 모니터 기반 치료(M = 5.60)보다 우울 증상 감소에 더 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 이는 VR 환경이 몰입감을 높여 치료 효과를 증진시킬 수 있음을 시사한다.
This study aimed to analyze the effect of bilateral eye movement in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy using Virtual Reality (VR) on reducing depression. Sixteen university students in Gyeonggi Province with CES-D scores of 25 or higher were selected and underwent EMDR therapy using both monitor-based and HMD-based setups. Changes in beta wave activity were measured before and after treatment, and paired sample t-tests were conducted using SPSS 27. Results showed that HMD-based EMDR (M = 4.67) was more effective in reducing depressive symptoms than monitor-based EMDR (M = 5.60). This suggests that immersive VR environments may enhance the therapeutic impact of EMDR.
