| Shrnutí: | The feasibility and efficacy of virtual reality job interview training (VR-JIT) was assessed in a single-blinded randomized controlled trial. Adults with autism spectrum disorder were randomized to VR-JIT (
n
= 16) or treatment-as-usual (TAU) (
n
= 10) groups. VR-JIT consisted of simulated job interviews with a virtual character and didactic training. Participants attended 90 % of laboratory-based training sessions, found VR-JIT easy to use and enjoyable, and they felt prepared for future interviews. VR-JIT participants had greater improvement during live standardized job interview role-play performances than TAU participants (
p
= 0.046). A similar pattern was observed for self-reported self-confidence at a trend level (
p
= 0.060). VR-JIT simulation performance scores increased over time (
R
2
= 0.83). Results indicate preliminary support for the feasibility and efficacy of VR-JIT, which can be administered using computer software or via the internet. |
