Approach from a Bibliometric Perspective of the Educational Application of Virtual Reality in People with Autism Spectrum Disorder

Technology is an integrative element that can contribute to the inclusion of people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), being Virtual Reality (VR) the one that best adapts to their learning style. In this sense, the purpose of this study is to make an analysis of the scientific production on VR and ASD. The sample consisted of 248 documents belonging to the main collection of the Web of Science being analyzed according to 9 indicators. The results indicate that the United States is the largest producer on the subject and has the largest production centers, although it has a high index of isolation. Likewise, the longest period has been 2014-2017, with developmental psychology and rehabilitation being the areas of the Web of Science most present. Finally, the vast majority of journals are present in Q1, where the authors publish the most on this subject.
