“…The interrelation between place and gamification is also mediated by the spatial relationship and the sense of place. Sharma et al [100] wondered how game designers select physical spaces to create places. In their review, they developed a detailed classification for the use of space in mixed reality games, which can also be understood according to the spatial (and temporal) relationship and the sense of place.…”

“…As stated previously, place matters. Designers, psychologists, geographers and urbanists should work together to carefully consider the multiple relationships to places when selecting and incorporating places in mental health interventions [100]. The creation and identification of places, which gather subjective perceptions of the interaction between people and the environment and place value on them, can have a great impact on the effectiveness of mental health interventions.…”

This work identifies major areas of knowledge and proposes a set of relevant dimensions by area that must be taken into account in the design and delivery of context-aware mobile applications for mental health interventions. We argue that much of the related research has focused only on a few dimensions, paying little or no attention to others and, most importantly, to potential relationships between them. Our belief is that the improvement of the effectiveness of mobile interventions to support mental health necessarily implies that developers and therapists comprehensively consider the interaction between the proposed dimensions. Taking as a starting point the three areas of knowledge (Technology, Context, and Mental Health), we re-examine each area to identify relevant dimensions, discuss the relationships between them and finally draw a series of considerations. The resulting considerations can help therapists and developers to devise, design, and generate custom mobile applications in a way that increases the motivation and engagement of patients and, therefore, the effectiveness of psychological treatments.

“…Or, these works examine how the construction of a map creates meaning for a space [94]. These works also examine how maps in games generally maintain a sense of space in a world where our relationship to space and place is diminishing [62,100]. Each of these projects are not about the interface, but the map as an object; its relationship to the gameworld; and its function as a creator of space, time, and story.…”

Maps in video games have grown into complex interactive systems alongside video games themselves. What map systems have done and currently do have not been cataloged or evaluated. We trace the history of game map interfaces from their paper-based inspiration to their current smart phone-like appearance. Readonly map interfaces enable players to consume maps, which is sufficient for wayfinding. Game cartography interfaces enable players to persistently modify maps, expanding the range of activity to support planning and coordination. We employ thematic analysis on game cartography interfaces, contributing a near-exhaustive catalog of games featuring such interfaces, a set of properties to describe and design such interfaces, a collection of play activities that relate to cartography, and a framework to identify what properties promote the activities. We expect that designers will find the contributions enable them to promote desired play experiences through game map interface design.

This work gathers a research carried out on the use of context-aware technologies in their application to the field of mental health. It begins by performing a deep state of the art of mobile technologies used in psychological interventions and extracting the characteristics and disorders most discussed in the literature; It continues to propose a series of considerations to take into account in the development of this type of technologies to increase its chances of success, focusing on three areas of study: Context, Mental Health and the Technology itself; The next contribution is the process of developing a platform that allows therapists to create their own mobile applications with geolocation to customize their own intervention tools without the need for high technical knowledge, the development is based on the learning obtained in the first two contributions, it is described as an intervention example a hypothetical case of depression; Finally, the platform is validated with three patients suffering from two different disorders: Panic disorder and agoraphobia; and gambling disorder.
