Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The objectives of this proposal are to examine the role of context in a virtual reality (VR) environment and to explore the extent to which cues (i.e., contextual cues or explicit smoking cues) influence craving and physiological arousal within VR. The current study seeks to determine whether smokers, placed in the context of a VR convenience store devoid of explicit smoking cues, will experience less craving and physiological arousal, compared to exposure to the same VR environment containing explicit smoking cues. This important line of inquiry will help clarify the influence of environmental contexts that may contribute to the overall reactivity effects (e.g., craving, arousal) smokers experience when confronted with cues associated with smoking.
