For those who don't know, a little context. The metaverse is Facebooks virtual reality. So you put on a Facebook headset and log into a digital world where you do therapy.
"This recent study from South Korea surprised me. I sent a copy of this research to my colleague in Singapore and I said, “I actually feel uneasy that youths prefer being in metaverse than in person.”
Key Grafs:
More than half of the university students preferred to engage in metaverse counselling than in-person counselling.
The metaverse counseling group exhibited a higher level of working alliances than the in-person counseling group.
Outcomes between in-person and meta verse counselling group: NO difference.
3 out of 28 dropped out during the counselling sessions. A total of 32 participants chose metaverse counselling, and none dropped out."
