Virtual reality job training for people with schizophrenia
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests a virtual reality (VR) training program to help people with schizophrenia prepare for work. It aims to see whether VR-based job skills training is safe and helpful for improving readiness and functioning.
