Abstract:

Metaverse is a hot topic recently, which has aroused widespread concern from all walks of life. The possible impact of the metaverse on the field of psychology includes creating a new field of panoramic learning process by creating an educational metaverse, creating a more scientific and novel teaching model by creating a MOOC metaverse, breaking the “magic circle” to alleviate interpersonal avoidance and promote individual social behavior, fostering individual self-identity by shaping the metaverse cyberpunk culture, improving the effectiveness of school mental health education by building a metaverse psychological experience center, creating a metaverse psychological intervention system based on traditional behavioral therapy to improve the effectiveness of psychological counseling, etc. However, the emerging technology represented by the metaverse is a double-edged sword. It is not only necessary to pay attention to this opportunity to create a perfect world or to create miracles, but also to guard against potential harm to the development of human society.
