Leg Agility objective evaluation through optical devices is often investigated for telemedicine applications. Moreover, remote rehabilitation for PD subjects through virtual exergaming is becoming a popular approach thanks to its versatility, increased user engagement and the possibility of coupling it with remote monitoring tools. This work investigates if lower-limb exergaming may also be exploited for assessment purposes similar to traditional evaluation. In particular, if there exists a statistical difference between the kinematic description of Leg Agility versus the one of a Bouncing Ball exergame, as provided by an optical (RGB-D) acquisition system suitable for remote monitoring. Preliminary results obtained by the comparison of the two types of assessment in a small group of parkinsonian subjects are presented and discussed.","PeriodicalId":252517,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 10th International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health(SeGAH)","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124508720","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents a systematic review of VR/AR/MR applications for promoting physical activity (PA). We reviewed 39 papers from 5 databases that met the inclusion criteria. The review results show that (1) VR-driven interventions were more common than AR and MR interventions, (2) more interventions were targeted toward the general public, (3) most interventions adopted exergames as the approach for designing their systems, (4) the self-monitoring strategy emerged as the most used persuasive strategy while tailoring was the least used strategy, and (5) the majority of the interventions were perceived to be effective in promoting PA. We propose that future AR/VR/MR interventions should investigate skill-building goals through systems that provide dynamic feedback to the target audience. This will allow participants to gain experience and skills to promote their physical health.","PeriodicalId":252517,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 10th International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health(SeGAH)","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132511313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

People with PD have limited reach, often due to impaired postural stability. We investigated how virtual reality (VR) can improve reach during and after VR exposure. Participants played a VR game where they smashed water balloons thrown at them by crossing their midsection. The distance the balloons were thrown at increased and decreased based on success or failure. Their perception of the distance and their hand were scaled in three counterbalanced conditions: under-scaled (scale = 0.83), not-scaled (scale = 1), and over-scaled (scale = 1.2), where the scale value is the ratio between the virtual reach that they perceive in the virtual environment (VE) and their actual reach. In each study condition, six data were measured −1. Real World Reach (pre-exposure), 2. Virtual Reality Baseline Reach, 3. Virtual Reality Not-Scaled Reach, 4. Under-Scaled Reach, 5. Over-Scaled Reach, and 6. Real World Reach (post-exposure). Our results show that scaling a person's movement in virtual reality can help improve reach. Therefore, we recommend including a scaling factor in VR games for people with Parkinson's disease.","PeriodicalId":252517,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 10th International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health(SeGAH)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128827586","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Identifying the presence of cognitive distortions is the fundamental initiative to treat mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression. As a consequence of COVID-19 and the other changes in social aspects, there is an escalation in the number of patients with mental illness. Although there are abundant effective psychotherapy strategies available, a substantial number of people avoid them due to misconceptions and stigma. Serious games can be a feasible solution to purvey mental healthcare to a significant percentage of people. The availability of smartphones unveils the opportunity to provide therapeutic facilities via digital gaming. Technology like Augmented Reality with its interactive features, has unlocked numerous opportunities in the mental health domain. In this paper, we have remodeled our previously proposed game, ARCoD, accessible on smartphones to measure Cognitive Distortions. We hypothesized that, through this game, it is possible to assess the level of 5 different Cognitive Distortions (Arbitrary Inference, Catastrophizing, Black and White Thinking, Emotional Reasoning, and Labeling) in an individual playing the game. The experimental outcome demonstrates that the level of Cognitive Distortions assessed from the game is exceedingly similar to the measurement accumulated from an established scale-Cognitive Distortion Scale (CDS).","PeriodicalId":252517,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 10th International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health(SeGAH)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125567938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Depression stigma prevents over half of the people who suffer from major depression from seeking professional help. Stigma mostly results from a deficient understanding of the mental disease. Research indicates that first-hand experiences of the perceptions of an individual diagnosed with a mental disorder in a simulated virtual reality environment can increase empathy and positive attitudes towards the individual. Interactive VR experiences have been described as a human-computer interface that enables users to immerse themselves in a computer generated, multi-dimensional environment. This project aims at examining the impact of a VR-assisted experience on reducing stigma and increase empathy towards individuals with depression. Following a methodology based on well-established results from psychology about common depression misunderstandings, we present a VR experience that simulates some of the most common difficulties encountered by people diagnosed with depression.","PeriodicalId":252517,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 10th International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health(SeGAH)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132763155","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Though conventional method like capnography provides accurate detection of VT1 episode, its utility is limited to lab settings. Thus there is a requirement to detect the same through wearable devices due to its application in real-world settings, using parameters coming out from the same such as Heart Rate (HR), Breathing Rate (BR), etc. The most popular parameter currently in use to determine VT1 threshold is HR through Detrended Fluctuation Analysis (DFA). However, HR measurements are often susceptible to motion artifacts that would bias the DFA results due to high movement activities. Thus, in this paper we have explored the utility of BR to compute VT1, due to its resistance to motion artifacts. We have used DFA to calculate the same obtained from the Gas Based Method. We further validated the model by doing a feasibility check using the Respiratory Inductance Plethysmography (RIP). We observed an increase in BR and a decrease in alpha range with successive incremental workloads. The $alpha_{br}$ obtained using DFA marked the episode of VT1 at $alpha=0.75$ as evidenced in HR measurements. We have presented a Bland Altman analysis, to evaluate the effectiveness of BR to determine VT1, using the reference device (based on the Gas Analysis Method) and wearable device (based on RIP). The experimental evaluation showed agreement between the reference VT1 and the estimated VT1 derived from BR with close to 100% BRVT1 point lying inside the limit of agreement.","PeriodicalId":252517,"journal":{"name":"2022 IEEE 10th International Conference on Serious Games and Applications for Health(SeGAH)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127851275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
