The bibliometric analysis highlights the rapid growth of research on metaverse and virtual reality since 2021, driven by technological developments corporate interests. data show a clear predominance technical studies (AI, blockchain, 5G) over social environmental issues, with sustainability digital divide representing less than 5% publications. Geographically, China, US, India concentrate academic production, marginalizing perspectives from Global South. Although promising applications in resilient agriculture inclusive design are identified, these remain marginal niches. Security privacy emerge as recurring concerns, but lack robust ethical frameworks to address emerging risks. Methodological limitations, such bias toward English-language publications, reinforce need incorporate diverse voices non-traditional sources. study concludes that development requires transdisciplinary approaches, policies, critical education ensure innovation does not reproduce existing inequalities instead promotes true equity.

Abstract Background Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) has shown promise in the assessment, understanding, and treatment of eating disorders (EDs), providing a dynamic platform for clinical innovation. This scoping review aims to synthesize recent advancements applications IVR addressing these complex psychological disorders. Methods followed Preferred Reporting Items Systematic Reviews Meta-analysis Protocols, focusing on studies published past five years. It included peer-reviewed papers that used ED examination, or treatment. A comprehensive database search provided selection relevant articles, which were then methodically screened analyzed. Results Twenty met inclusion criteria, with primary focus Anorexia Nervosa (AN), Bulimia (BN), Binge Eating Disorder (BED). The application was categorized into three areas: found be an effective tool assessing body image distortions emotional responses food, insights are less accessible through traditional methods. Furthermore, offers innovative approaches by facilitating exposure therapy, modifying body-related biases, enabling regulation embodied experiences. demonstrate IVR’s potential improve accuracy, reduce food-related anxieties, support behavioral changes patients. Conclusion stands out as transformative technology field EDs, offering benefits across diagnostic, therapeutic, experiential domains. ability simulate brain’s predictive coding mechanisms provides powerful avenue delivering embodied, interventions can help recalibrate distorted representations dysfunctional affective models implicated EDs. Future research should continue refine applications, ensuring consistent methodologies wider trials fully harness settings.
