Abstract
The use of virtual reality as a learning tool is becoming increasingly prevalent in social work education. This systematic review aims to analyse the findings of studies that have applied virtual reality to social work training through thematic and content analyses. Our results show that the main advantages of virtual reality for social work training cited in the literature include improvements in motivation, and the acquisition of competencies and skills specific to the discipline of social work (assessment, diagnosis and intervention), among others. The main limitations include temporal constraints in the application of virtual reality, as well as perceived dehumanisation.
