Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 1 Jul 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the MyRAKAN Autism module, which integrates video modelling and spherical video-based virtual reality (SVVR), can improve social communication skills in autistic young adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the MyRAKAN Autism module improve social responsiveness and social communication skills in autistic young adults? Does the MyRAKAN Autism module improve autism-related characteristics, anxiety, and quality of life? Researchers will compare participants who receive the MyRAKAN Autism intervention immediately with participants in a delayed-treatment control group to determine whether the intervention leads to greater improvements in these outcomes. Participants will: Complete baseline assessments of autism characteristics, social communication, anxiety, and quality of life. Be randomly assigned to either the immediate treatment group or the delayed-treatment control group. Attend eight intervention sessions over five weeks, consisting of video modelling and spherical video-based virtual reality (SVVR) social skills practice (treatment group), or wait six weeks before receiving the same intervention (control group). Complete post-intervention assessments and a questionnaire on any side effects.
