Oct 2020
Co-authored a research paper on SpiroPlay's breathing games for spirometry, published at ACM. Describes 11 interactive metaphors tested with 30 asthmatic children.
After working as lead developer for the SpiroPlay collaboration for more than a year, the results of extensive research by many of its members were published in a concise research paper.
We have built and implemented a set of metaphors for breathing games by involving children and experts. These games are made to facilitate prevention of asthma exacerbation via regular monitoring of children with asthma through spirometry at home. Eleven metaphors have been developed in detail. Three metaphors have been fully implemented based on current guidelines for spirometry and were tested with 30 asthmatic children. Each includes multi-target incentives, responding to three different target values (inhalation, peak expiration, and complete exhalation).
We postulate that the metaphors should use separate goals for these targets, have independent responses, and allow to also go beyond expected values for each of these targets.
