Article abstracts full texts screened by two reviewers, with a third reviewer resolving conflicts. Inclusion criteria consisted following: (a) empirical study, (b) military/veteran sample, (c) exposed stress disorder (PTSD) criterion A event, (d) ≥1 factor examined, (e) outcome examined. After data extraction, Bibliometric Network Analysis was used visualize topics covered. Literature searches yielded 1,341 articles. Of these, 104 articles retained after screening. studied, QoL, functioning, growth well-researched. Across intervention types (CBT-based, wave, complementary), some interventions efficacious (mainly QoL), but many had negligible or nonsignificant effects. Other social support, external resources, systemic supports understudied. Intensive those involving daily practice most effectively promoted wellbeing. Protective such as executive optimism, system-level resources should be better incorporated into PTSD care members/veterans.

Virtual Reality (VR) is an emerging technology that reshaping healthcare research and practice methodology across a growing range of clinical conditions. Technical scientific advances in this area are resulting innovative approaches can foster opportunities previously considered infeasible within the confines traditional therapeutic approaches. The appeal VR lies its ability to create 3D stimulus environments systematically controllable, multisensory, interactive, immersive. At same time, enables advanced techniques for capturing quantifying behavior response simulated conditions closely mimic places, events, challenges person may face everyday life. This "Ultimate Skinner Box" capability positions as promising tool advancing assessment, intervention, variety mental health wellness contexts.
