“…Intawong et al [ 14 ] examined the effectiveness of a gamified AR app, “Camt comic run”, at Chiang Mai University. The study revealed increased participation and motivation among participants with initially low physical activity levels but did not significantly affect those already meeting activity guidelines.…”

Physical inactivity represents a significant public health challenge globally. Mobile applications, particularly those utilizing augmented reality (AR), have emerged as innovative tools for promoting physical activity. However, a systematic evaluation of their efficacy is essential. This systematic review aims to evaluate and synthesize the evidence regarding the effectiveness and benefits of mobile applications with augmented reality in enhancing physical activity and improving health outcomes. A comprehensive search was conducted in Scopus, PubMed, WOS, and the Cochrane Library databases following PRISMA guidelines. Observational and interventional studies evaluating AR mobile applications for physical exercise were included, without restrictions on publication date or language. The search terms included “Mobile Applications”, “Augmented Reality”, “Physical Fitness”, “Exercise Therapy”, and “Health Behavior”. The methodological quality was assessed using the ROBINS tool. The review identified twelve eligible studies encompassing 5,534,661 participants. The findings indicated significant increases in physical activity and improvements in mental health associated with the use of AR applications, such as Pokémon GO. However, potential risk behaviors were also noted. The evidence suggests that AR interventions can effectively promote physical activity and enhance health. Nonetheless, further research is needed to address limitations and optimize their efficacy. Future interventions should be tailored to diverse cultural contexts to maximize benefits and mitigate risks. AR mobile applications hold promise for promoting physical activity and improving health outcomes. Strategies to optimize their effectiveness and address identified risks should be explored to fully realize their potential.

The majority of marathon deaths are caused by sudden cardia arrest which occurs in approximately 1 in 100,000 runners around the world. In such cases, sudden resuscitation of first aid, including an early use of automated external defibrillator (AED) on runners by medical staff is immediately necessary. However, in some cases patient information of the runner is required to support the clinical decision-making of the medical staff, including the admission to hospital with certain symptoms. To make marathon events safer, we developed a mobile-healthcare emergency assistance application for safety and prevention in marathon events. Our project covers three phases: registration, data analytics and running phases. In the registration phase, we designed and developed a form containing the runner’s electronic personal health record filled in during the registration of the runner at the event. For the analytics and running phases, we analyze the data from the registration phase in order to prepare the capacity of resource and medical staff necessary to prevent and treat injuries and accidents including a sufficient number of AED devices. Finally, for the running phase, we developed a mobile application Medic and Track based on the qr code scanning in BIB for patient information that allows to locate the runner's emergency aid point and bring the patient to that rescue point or hospital. We also tested the application on a large number of runners participating in the CMU marathon 2020 with 9721 runners. The results of this study suggest that the purpose of our application can be generally accepted for the medical staff, and it also proved to be a suitable technology to prevent serious accidents in future marathon events.

“…El uso de la RA basada en la ubicación por GPS también se justifica por la actividad física que puede estimular en los estudiantes, como la aplicación "Camt comic run" evaluada en estudiantes universitarios (Intawong & Puritat, 2021) y el estudio de Ruiz-Ariza y su equipo (Ruiz-Ariza et al, 2018) que evalúa la efectividad del popular juego Pokémon Go en el rendimiento cognitivo e inteligencia emocional y también menciona que el juego produjo un aumento de la cantidad de ejercicio diario en los adolescentes de secundaria.…”

“…La gamificación también tiene un impacto positivo en promover la actividad física, un ejemplo es la intervención de un perro virtual con un sistema de recompensa basado en puntos para incitar a niños a realizar actividad física (Ahn et al, 2019). Otro aporte es la aplicación "Camt comic run" (Intawong & Puritat, 2021), un juego móvil de Realidad Aumentada basado en la ubicación para promover que los participantes hagan ejercicio con frecuencia.…”

Introducción 1.1 MotivaciónLa empatía se define como la capacidad que tiene una persona (un perceptor) para compartir y comprender los estados internos de otra persona (un objetivo) (Weisz & Cikara, 2021). Un metaanálisis reciente del término empatía encontró grandes variedades en su conceptualización (Hall & Schwartz, 2019), existiendo una variedad de modelos teóricos que definen procesos, características y componentes principales de la empatía.Un ejemplo es el modelo de empatía de Davis (Davis, 1994), que identifica cuatro procesos: 1) los antecedentes que son características del observador, el objetivo o la situación, seguido de 2) procesos que son mecanismos particulares mediante los cuales se producen resultados empáticos. Estos resultados pueden ser 3) intrapersonales, que se refieren a las respuestas afectivas y cognitivas producidas en el observador que no se manifiestan en un comportamiento abierto hacia el objetivo y, finalmente, 4) resultados interpersonales, que son respuestas conductuales hacia el objetivo, como agresión, ayuda y conducta prosocial. Otro ejemplo de conceptualización de la empatía es el modelo de Singer y Lamm (Singer & Lamm, 2009) que identifica componentes de la empatía, en lugar de los procesos, como la mímica, el contagio emocional, la simpatía, la compasión y el comportamiento prosocial. Otra propuesta es el marco de empatía de Janssen (J. H. Janssen, 2012) conformada por tres componentes: 1) empatía cognitiva, la capacidad para inferir lo que siente la otra persona, 2) convergencia emocional, la capacidad de experimentar las emociones de la otra persona, y 3) respuesta empática, que puede ser simpatía enfocándose en aliviar la angustia del otro (relacionado con el comportamiento prosocial) o angustia personal. Otro aporte importante es el trabajo de Keskin (Keskin, 2014), que define un modelo circular e iterativo con varias etapas, entre ellas: actuar, significar, imaginar, toma de perspectiva, sentir y comprender, en el que la empatía es una característica evolutiva que se desarrolla de manera incremental a medida que los sujetos iteran sobre las fases del modelo circular propuesto. Una propuesta más reciente es el Modelo de Empatía de Ruta Dual (Yu & Chou, 2018) compuesto por tres procesos: 1) la ruta inferior siendo un proceso afectivo alineado con las "experiencias compartidas" o la "preocupación empática", 2) la ruta superior que
