Abstract
Philosophical reflection involves deep, critical engagement with fundamental questions about reality and can support both individual self-awareness and broader critical thinking. Yet contemporary philosophical education faces growing challenges due to the fast pace of life and the prioritization of "economically useful” competencies. This study examines the educational potential of VR to foster philosophical reflection among students. We developed a VR application, [anonimized], and conducted a proof-of-concept qualitative study with 56 participants using individual questionnaires and semi-structured focus group interviews, followed by thematic analysis. Findings suggest that VR-through first-person perspective, multisensory experience, and heightened engagement-can effectively support philosophical self-reflexivity, while distractors such as technical issues, novelty effects, and time pressure may hinder reflectiveness. We propose design and research recommendations and argue that well-designed VR experiences may function as a “philosophy machine” for supporting philosophical reflection in digital society.
