摘要
虚拟现实技术在心理健康研究领域得到了广泛的应用。然而，到目前为止，还没有研究采用文献计量学方法系统地分析虚拟现实在心理健康中的应用。通过检索Web of Science Core Collection，我们总结了该领域前100位被引论文，并利用CiteSpace对心理健康与虚拟现实进行了首次文献计量学研究。结果表明，这一领域受到了相当大的关注。美国是最有影响力的国家。伦敦大学和埃默里大学是主要的捐赠机构。Rothbaum BO是最多产的作者，而《网络心理学、行为和社交网络》是该领域发表论文最多的杂志。该领域的主要研究重点是精神障碍的虚拟现实治疗，特别是焦虑障碍的虚拟现实暴露治疗。这些发现可能有助于研究人员了解心理健康和虚拟现实领域的现状和未来趋势。
The top 100 cited papers on mental health and virtual reality: a bibliometric analysis.
Virtual reality technology has been widely applied in the field of mental health research. However, to date, no study has employed bibliometric methods to systematically analyze the application of virtual reality in mental health. By searching the Web of Science Core Collection, we have summarized the top 100 cited papers in this field and conducted the first bibliometric study on mental health and virtual reality using CiteSpace. The results indicate that this area has received considerable attention. The United States stands out as the most influential country. The University of London and Emory University are the leading contributing institutions. Rothbaum BO is the most productive author, and Cyberpsychology, Behavior, And Social Networking, is the journal with the most publications in this area. The primary focus of research in this domain is on virtual reality therapy for mental disorders, especially virtual reality exposure therapy for anxiety disorders. These findings may help researchers understand the current state and future trends in the field of mental health and virtual reality.
期刊介绍：
Psychology, Health & Medicine is a multidisciplinary journal highlighting human factors in health. The journal provides a peer reviewed forum to report on issues of psychology and health in practice. This key publication reaches an international audience, highlighting the variation and similarities within different settings and exploring multiple health and illness issues from theoretical, practical and management perspectives. It provides a critical forum to examine the wide range of applied health and illness issues and how they incorporate psychological knowledge, understanding, theory and intervention. The journal reflects the growing recognition of psychosocial issues as they affect health planning, medical care, disease reaction, intervention, quality of life, adjustment adaptation and management.
For many years theoretical research was very distant from applied understanding. The emerging movement in health psychology, changes in medical care provision and training, and consumer awareness of health issues all contribute to a growing need for applied research. This journal focuses on practical applications of theory, research and experience and provides a bridge between academic knowledge, illness experience, wellbeing and health care practice.
