The pros and cons of VR technology and their impact on human behavior are intensively discussed (e.g., in the context of computer games). In Western countries the discussion is focusing on violent game content. A lot is already discussed on the harmful and negative effects of VR game-based technology on human behavior, therefore we decided to focus primarily on the positive effects of VR based technology. In this paper a first overview over positive effects of VR based technology on human behavior is presented and discussed. The drawn recommendations can support developers and designers in VR industry.
