Abstract

In recent days, the metaverse which is defined as virtual-reality space in which people can interact with each other in a computer-generated environment, has attracted people’s attention. People have posted their opinions about the metaverse on social media platforms. Twitter is one of those platforms in which people have tweeted about the metaverse. Tweets help researchers to understand public attitudes on a subject. This research focuses on two analyses: The first one used sentiment analysis on Turkish tweets about various alternative words of the metaverse, such as karma evren, misal evren, ote evren, sahte dunya, sanal evren and internet otesi. The second focus of our research was on an analysis of a questionnaire that aimed to understand whether people are aware of the metaverse and willing to experience it or not. The result of sentiment analysis showed that the most of the collected tweets were positive about the collected tweets. The questionnaire analysis showed that the majority of participants were aware of the metaverse and would like to experience that virtual space
