The impact of emotion regulation interventions on wellbeing has been extensively documented in literature, although only in recent years virtual reality (VR) technologies have been incorporated in the design of such interventions, in both clinical and non-clinical settings. A systematic search, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines, was therefore carried out to explore the state of the art in emotion regulation interventions for wellbeing using virtual reality. The literature on this topic was queried, 414 papers were screened, and 11 studies were included, covering adults and older adults. Our findings offer an overview of the current use of VR technologies for the enhancement of emotion regulation (ER) and wellbeing. The results are promising and suggest that VR-based emotion regulation training can facilitate the promotion of wellbeing. An overview of VR-based training interventions is crucial for better understanding how to use these tools in the clinical settings. This review offers a critical debate on the structure of such intervention protocols. It also analyzes and highlights the crucial role played by the selection of the objective and subjective wellbeing assessment measures of said intervention protocols.
情绪调节干预对幸福感的影响在文献中已有广泛记载，不过直到近年来，虚拟现实（VR）技术才被纳入此类干预措施的设计中，应用于临床和非临床环境。因此，按照系统评价和Meta分析的首选报告项目（PRISMA）指南进行了一项系统检索，以探究使用虚拟现实进行情绪调节干预以促进幸福感的最新进展。对该主题的文献进行了查询，筛选了414篇论文，纳入了11项研究，涵盖成年人和老年人。我们的研究结果概述了当前使用VR技术增强情绪调节（ER）和幸福感的情况。结果很有前景，表明基于VR的情绪调节训练有助于促进幸福感。概述基于VR的训练干预措施对于更好地理解如何在临床环境中使用这些工具至关重要。本综述对这类干预方案的结构进行了批判性讨论。它还分析并强调了所选的上述干预方案的客观和主观幸福感评估措施所起的关键作用。
