摘要

作为计算机生成的数字虚拟世界,元宇宙成为教育、文化、技术、娱乐等领域研究的热点。梦境作为大脑产生的虚拟现实世界,与元宇宙存在广泛的相似性。梦境研究在心理学领域已有近百年的历史,诸多心理学理论假说揭示了大脑为什么能构建出具有真实、沉浸感的梦境虚拟世界。梦境研究的心理学理论基础可以为元宇宙潜在的发展和应用方向提供新的启示和思路。从提升人的价值和幸福感出发,以拓展和探寻元宇宙的应用为目标,综述了心理学关于梦境的理论假说,并以梦境的功能为基础,在娱乐社交、技能学习、咨询测评、创伤治疗等方面,将元宇宙作为现实世界和梦中世界的补充,为元宇宙的发展和应用前景提供了理论参考。最后,分析了当前元宇宙发展面临的重大挑战。

Abstract

The metaverse is a digital virtual world generated by the computer, as a hot-spot in the fields of the education, the culture, the technology and the entertainment in recent years. The dream world is a virtual reality world generated by the brain, and is comparable with the metaverse. Different psychological hypotheses were proposed to explain why the brain could construct the immersive, realistic virtual world in dreams. From the functions of the dreams many new ideas of potential applications could be gained for the metaverse. This paper reviews the theoretical hypotheses about the dreams, which could find applications in the metaverse, and to enrich the real and dream world in the entertainment and the social interaction, the skill learning, the counseling and the evaluation, and the trauma therapy. Finally, despite the promising future of the metaverse, there are still important challenges in the development of the metaverse.
