Reference Zayeni, D., Raynaud, J. P., & Revet, A. (2020). Therapeutic and Preventive Use of Video Games in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry: A Systematic Review.   Frontiers in psychiatry,   11, 36. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyt.2020.00036 The article explored the recent developments in the use of video games in psychiatry, specifically regarding children. They found that utilizing serious games and commercially available video games can serve as a beneficial pathway for implementing psychotherapy in the fields of child and adolescent psychiatry. 2) Second Topic of Interest: The effect of virtual reality therapy and counseling on students' public speaking anxiety Gap Statement: “It is proposed that empirical investigation on VR and counseling for treating SA and PSA in students be continued to provide more examples and end the literature inconsistency in this area.
