Abstract
Virtual reality is efficient in several areas. Currently, a desire to broaden its use is observed, particularly in the context of learning self-regulation techniques via relaxation. This study aims at (1) validating virtual environments and (2) assessing their efficacy across different populations (e.g., outpatients, patients with breast cancer, cardiac patients).
