Item ScWiz: Personalizing Psychotherapy(The Eurographics Association, 2021) Sá, Marco de; Carriço, Luís; Duarte, Luís; Cruz, David; Torres, Cátia; Chambel, Teresa and Nunes, Nuno and Romao, Teresa and Creissac Campos, JoséThis paper presents ScWiz, a framework that provides psychotherapists with means to tailor specific therapies for their patients. Used artifacts can be easily adapted to the patient's problem, to his evolution rhythm, therapy stage or even to possible filling in situations. Furthermore, the artifacts can be configured to pro actively adapt to the patient's behavior, according to previously defined rules, extending the therapist's motivating role. Besides it also enables deferred analysis of the patient's interaction and behavior with the therapy artifacts. The framework ranges from desktop computers, to mobile devices (e.g. PDAs and TabletPCs) covering the various therapeutic tasks for both patient and therapist. Special care was taken on the design stages, minimizing the intrusiveness of the solution and maximizing the simplicity of usage, particularly on the resulting patients' artifacts.Item Supporting Group Analysis in Psychotherapy(The Eurographics Association, 2021) Carriço, Luís; Sá, Marco de; Duarte, Luís; Reis, Tiago; Chambel, Teresa and Nunes, Nuno and Romao, Teresa and Creissac Campos, JoséPsychological therapy for pathologies such as depression, anxiety, among others, often leads patients to group therapy sessions, where patients and therapists interact and share their experiences. Besides including the challenges that are present in any kind of meeting settings, psychotherapy, for its critical health scenario, presents difficulties that have not yet been approached by currently used groupware. This paper introduces a system, which uses mobile devices and a large public screen, to support group therapy sessions. It encompasses a variety of functionalities that provide both therapists and patients with necessary means to enhance and fulfil their particular tasks during and between sessions.
