虚拟现实技术在孤独症谱系障碍儿童干预中的研究进展

Recent advances in the virtual reality technology for treating children with autism spectrum disorder

摘要:

孤独症谱系障碍（autism spectrum disorder, ASD）是儿童期神经发育障碍性疾病之一，目前治疗尚无特效方法，主要干预措施以教育训练和行为矫正为主。虚拟现实作为新兴技术，是一种以计算机为基础的环境模拟系统，通过融合多种来源信息实现交互式动态和沉浸式体验，近年逐渐被应用于ASD儿童干预训练。该文将综述虚拟现实在ASD儿童的情绪认知、社交能力、生活能力、运动能力、特殊恐惧方面的干预研究进展，为ASD干预训练拓展新方向。

Abstract:

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is one of the neurodevelopmental disorders in children, and there are currently no specific treatments, with the main interventions focusing on educational training and behavioral correction. Virtual reality, as an emerging technology, is a computer-based environmental simulation system that achieves interactive dynamics and immersive experiences by integrating information from multiple sources. In recent years, it has been gradually applied in intervention training for children with ASD. This paper reviews the recent studies on the effects of virtual reality intervention on emotional cognition, social skills, daily living skills, motor skills, and specific phobias in children with ASD, offering a new direction for ASD intervention training.
