Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is characterized by limitations in social communication and interaction, self-repetitive behaviors, and the presence of limited interests. The prevalence of ASD, which typically emerges in the first years of life, is increasing at an alarming rate due to multiple factors, including the broadening of diagnostic criteria, heightened public awareness, and more frequent diagnoses among women and adults. Over the years, experts have invested considerable time and effort in developing educational scenarios for children with ASD. However, they have faced challenges replicating certain scenarios-such as emergencies, crowded public transportation, or restaurant environments-because recreating these exact conditions in real-world settings is difficult or cost-prohibitive. This has consequently compelled experts to seek out supplementary intervention methods that are more suitable and accessible. Virtual reality (VR), which has the capacity to integrate the physical and virtual realms, represents one such alternative intervention method. In this study, a systematic review of studies employing VR technology in social skills interventions for individuals with ASD was conducted, and 31 studies were included. The findings indicate the potential benefits of VR applications focusing on the social skills of individuals with ASD. Additionally, this research elucidates the limitations of the studies and offers suggestions for future research.
自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)是一种神经发育障碍,其特征在于社交沟通与互动受限、存在自我重复行为以及兴趣有限。ASD通常在生命的最初几年出现,由于多种因素,包括诊断标准的拓宽、公众意识的提高以及女性和成年人中诊断频率的增加,其患病率正以惊人的速度上升。多年来,专家们投入了大量时间和精力为患有ASD的儿童开发教育场景。然而,他们在复制某些场景时面临挑战,如紧急情况、拥挤的公共交通或餐厅环境,因为在现实世界中重现这些确切条件既困难又成本高昂。因此,这迫使专家们寻找更合适且易于获得的补充干预方法。虚拟现实(VR)能够整合物理和虚拟领域,是一种这样的替代干预方法。在本研究中,对在针对患有ASD的个体的社交技能干预中使用VR技术的研究进行了系统综述,共纳入31项研究。研究结果表明了专注于患有ASD的个体社交技能的VR应用的潜在益处。此外,本研究阐明了这些研究的局限性,并为未来研究提供了建议。
