BACKGROUND Military members and veterans exhibit higher rates of injuries illnesses such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) because their increased exposure to combat other traumatic scenarios. Novel treatments for PTSD are beginning emerge increasingly leverage advances in gaming technologies, virtual reality. Without assessing the degree technology acceptance perception usability end users, including military members, veterans, attending therapists staff, it is difficult determine whether a technology-based treatment will be used successfully wider clinical practice. The Unified Theory Acceptance Use Technology model commonly address applications 5 domains. OBJECTIVE Using model, purpose this study was multimodal motion-assisted memory desensitization reconsolidation (3MDR) on reality system primary user group (military with treatment-resistant PTSD, 3MDR therapists, environment operators). METHODS This mixed methods embedded pilot included (n=3) (n=8) diagnosis combat-related well (n=13) operators (n=5) who completed pre-post questionnaires before completion 6 weekly sessions 3MDR. A partial least squares structural equation analyze questionnaire results. Qualitative data from interviews were assessed using thematic analysis. RESULTS Effort expectancy, which most notable predictor behavioral intention, after course system, whereas all constructs demonstrated no significant change. Participants’ expectations met, by nonsignificant differences scores. key qualitative themes feasibility function, technical support, tailored immersion. CONCLUSIONS via appears feasible, usable, accepted delivering experience facilitate treatment.
