Example of virtual school program for test anxiety reduction at Gangnam Severance Hospital. Program flow and screenshots from each session (Session A and B). Each session includes sub-sessions: Exam and Meditation (Med). In each of the Exam sessions, the users were exposed to an anxiety-inducing scenario. In each of the Med session, the users were guided through a mindfulness meditation practice in at-home or at-school. Heart rate variability (HRV) and subjective feelings of anxiety using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), immediately after each session, were also measured to examine the changes during each of the anxiety-inducing (Exam 1, Exam 2) and meditation (Med 1, Med 2) session in the program.
