It dramatically decreases cognitive functions, and that in turn leads to more dangers to the addicted individual and the community in general. For the drug dependent individuals who want to leave the addiction behind, getting back their cognitive functions is critical, especially for the other treatment to be successful, making sure that the patient will make safe decisions and stay drug-free. There are many methods for doing this and using video games for cognitive rehabilitation is one of the newest ones. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of computerized cognitive rehabilitation on the working memory of opioid-dependent patients. The method of this research was quasi-experimental with pre and post-test plan in two experimental and control groups. The statistical population of this study comprised of opioid-dependent patients referred to an addiction treatment center in Tehran, from which 20 people (10 in the control group and 10 in the experimental group) were selected and randomly assigned to the experimental and the control group. The instrument used was sub-scales of Wechsler intelligence scale, including the substitution of numbers and symbols and the substitution of numbers and letters. After the pretest, the intervention stage was performed in which the experimental group received training through cognitive computer games, which was performed in 24 sessions. Then, in the last training session, the post-test was taken from both groups and finally, data analysis was performed using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA). The results showed that cognitive computerized rehabilitation is effective in increasing the working memory of opioid-dependent patients. These results have important implications for cognitive rehabilitation training and therapeutic interventions to promote working memory, so that center specialists can use this method along with other therapeutic interventions to help these patients get back their cognitive functions necessary to come back to the society and life successfully.","PeriodicalId":269583,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Serious Games Symposium (ISGS)","volume":"595 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123324017","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}

Method: The method of the present study was quasi-experimental. The sample group of the present study consisted of 45 second to sixth grade students who received a diagnosis of Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder. Of these, 30 were in the experimental group, which were randomly assigned to the “Brain train” and “cogni_plus” game groups, and 15 were placed in the control group without intervention. Both experimental groups received three sessions per week for eight weeks and a total of 24 sessions by computer-trained therapists in the field of cognitive rehabilitation separately with the game “Brain train” and “cogni_plus” and the control group did not receive any training program. The performance of all three groups in cognitive functions was assessed by sustained auditory and visual attention before and after cognitive training programs by integrated visual-auditory performance test. The collected data were analyzed by analysis of covariance using LSD post hoc test. Results: The results of data analysis showed a significant improvement in the performance of the two experimental groups compared to the control group in the measured components (p <0.05). Also, no significant difference was observed between the two experimental groups in improving the performance of sustained auditory attention speed (p <0.05). However, in terms of stable visual attention, the cogni_plus group performed better than the brain training group (p <0.05). Conclusion: In general, the obtained results indicate the effectiveness of serious games used in the present study on improving the attention span of children with ADHD. In addition, the results show that the “cogni_plus” in terms of strengthening visual cognitive skills perform better than the “Brain train”.","PeriodicalId":269583,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Serious Games Symposium (ISGS)","volume":"394 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127594220","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}

Individuals with autism spectrum disorder have serious deficit in regulating their emotions. Various treatments have been used to improve emotion regulation in children with autism including using video games designed to improve emotion regulation, has attracted many researchers, treating autism or other groups of children with special needs. These games can be used with or without a therapist presence which would save money and energy. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of EmoGalaxy, a video game designed to improve emotion regulation of children with autism spectrum disorder, compared to a card games with emotion regulation approach. Effectiveness of both interventions were evaluated by a quasi-experimental research with pretest-posttest and a control group. 10 students in the first experimental group played with EmoGalaxy, while the second experimental group, with 10 students, played regular cards games. The control group, consisted of 10 students did not receive any treatment and waited to receive the intervention after the experimental group intervention period. The instrument used in this study to evaluate the emotion regulation of the participants was the emotion regulation checklist (Shields & Cicchetti, 2004). The obtained data was analyzed by Multiple Analysis of the Covariance (MANCOVA). The results of the study showed that computer cognitive games led to significant changes compared to the other experimental group and the control group in emotion regulation (p<0.05). It is concluded that computer games can be used to improve emotion regulation in children with autism spectrum disorder.","PeriodicalId":269583,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Serious Games Symposium (ISGS)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124359978","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}

There are different types for attention, one of the most important of which is sustained attention. Its function is to keep brain attention on the task during a particular time. Two methods are applied to prevent mind-wandering. The first approach tries to reinforce attentional ability through different approaches to reduce the occurrence of mind wandering; however, in the second approach, we aim to return attention to the main task through controlling methods during readings. This article aims to introduce the cognitive game “Focus” as an intervention to examine mind wandering occurrence during reading passages. In this project, mind-wandering detection is done automatically through eye movements by an eye tracker. We developed a 2-d platformer game in unity engine software whose main character is in search of the related elements to the reading subject. As time passes, the difficulty of the game increases to keep attention over time. The data were gathered by a questionnaire given to ten experts in the fields of multimedia, game design, and cognitive science. The results indicate that Focus can, first, identify mind-wandering and, then, intervene it to reinforce sustained attention.","PeriodicalId":269583,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Serious Games Symposium (ISGS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130238782","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}

As one of their oldest applications, they can be utilized to stimulate R&D in a given field. Yet other policy objectives such as supporting commercialization, networking and solving strategic challenges have been considered for them. Since serious gaming is gaining a great attention in the transformation era of education, training and healthcare, public support for the research, development and promotion of SGs is of significant importance. Accordingly, SeGaP is an innovation prize for the stimulation of science, technology and innovation (STI) performance in this area. This paper attempts to present the evolution of SeGaP with an action research approach to review the role of this innovation prize in the enhancement of SG ecosystem. The results show that the best application of SeGaP is to legitimize the SGs in the society and create a network among different stakeholders for the growth of this ecosystem. It is also shown that there are major issues regarding the commercialization of SGs which has to be solved by a mix of different policy instruments.","PeriodicalId":269583,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Serious Games Symposium (ISGS)","volume":"125 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130709664","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}
