Virtual Reality

Virtual Reality

Scientific American Frontiers, a PBS program hosted by Alan Alda, has been producing science-based documentaries since 1990. Two episodes deal with phobias—one is about the fear of heights and the other about the fear of spiders. The program delves into the common ways in which psychologists help individuals with phobias and how technology is being used to assist in the treatment of these phobias. The episodes also help understand how research can be applied to address specific mental health issues.
