Abstract

Three-dimensional (3D) virtual worlds have been employed in various domains and have been a topic for investigation for a long time. Nevertheless, the papers chosen for this assembled issue of the Journal of Virtual Worlds Research all argue the need for further research into human engagement with virtual worlds and beyond a discussion of the affordances of virtual worlds and their limitations.
