Description	Virtual reality and augmented reality (VR and AR) technologies, such as Oculus Rift and Microsoft HoloLens, are changing the landscape of medical health research and practices, especially mental health and well-being. The VR and AR are emerging as alternative aids for treatments and diagnostics of psychological disorders. There has been criticism for traditional neuropsychological and psycho-therapeutic assessments for scoping the clinical-based reviews to everyday complex functional scenarios. Currently, diagnosis of any psychological disorder, including depression and anxiety, mainly relies on clinical interviews and subjective reporting of the symptoms. Despite cognitive decline and psychomotor disturbance, there are no globally accepted or approved cognitive markers comprising the diagnostic criteria (DSM-V and ICD–10) for any psychological disorder. The clinical research with digital technologies, especially VR and AR, may bring more quantitative and objective assessment using cognitive measures, besides the traditional clinical examination and reporting. Envisioning the future of mental health clinical practices, this chapter describes the state-of-the-art virtual and augmented reality clinical research and discusses the limitations and future directions of VR/AR mental health research.
