This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing VR-based Avatar Therapy, a virtual reality treatment designed to help people with schizophrenia who hear voices. The therapy works by using virtual reality to help you externalize and reframe these distressing voices, teaching you new ways to respond to them. Researchers will also measure how your thinking patterns, self-awareness, and social understanding affect how well this treatment works for you.
Many people with schizophrenia continue to hear voices even when taking medication, and current treatments don't work for everyone. This trial exists to understand which thinking and awareness patterns predict whether VR-based Avatar Therapy will help, so doctors can eventually personalize treatment for each patient.

You would attend four assessment visits over 6 months: an initial screening, a baseline visit, check-ins during treatment, and a final visit after therapy ends. During the 12-week treatment period, you would receive 7 individual virtual reality therapy sessions spaced over the 12 weeks. At each assessment visit, you would complete questionnaires and tests that measure your emotions, thinking patterns, memory, and how you relate to others—this helps researchers understand what factors influence how well the therapy works for you.
