Resumo: A growing number of researches has appeared on virtual reality exposure therapy (VRET) to treat anxiety disorders. The purpose of this article was to review some evidences that support the VRET efficacy to treat driving phobia. The studies were identified through computerized search (PubMed/Medline, Web of Science, and Scielo databases) from 1984 to 2007. Some findings are promising. Anxiety/avoidance ratings declined from pre to post-treatment. VRET may be used as a first step in the treatment of driving phobia, as long as it may facilitate the in vivo exposure, thus reducing risks and high costs of such exposure. Notwithstanding, more randomized/controlled clinical trials are required to prove its efficacy.

O objetivo deste estudo foi revisar algumas evidências que apoiam a eficácia da VRET para tratar fobia de dirigir. Os estudos foram identificados por meio de buscas computadorizadas (PubMed/Medline, Web of Science e Scielo databases) no período de 1984 a 2007. Alguns achados são promissores. Índices de ansiedade/evitação caíram entre o início e o fim do tratamento. VRET poderia ser um primeiro passo no tratamento da fobia de dirigir, uma vez que pode facilitar a exposição ao vivo, evitando-se os riscos e elevados custos dessa exposição. Entretanto, mais estudos clínicos randomizados/controlados são necessários para comprovar sua eficácia.  Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2010-05-11info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/17459Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 26 No. 1 (2010): Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; 131Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 26 Núm. 1 (2010): Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; 131Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 26 No. 1 (2010): Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; 131Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 26 n. 1 (2010): Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; 1311806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
