“…Finally, participatory medicine approaches usually focus on providing patients with information on their health issue [27] , including advanced information and communication technology (ICT) tools as games [13] , in order to encourage collaboration among patients health professionals to partner in determining the treatment. Involving the patient in the decision-making process, patient compliance with the selected intervention is likely to be high, and improve treatment adherence.…”

A Formal Understanding of Computational Empathy in Interactive Agents

“…Proceeding the data collection, a series of qualitative data modeling steps was conducted following the methodology of Grounded Theory (Chun Tie et al, 2019). Grounded theory is a well established method for knowledge engineering (Lifschitz, Porter, & Van Harmelen, 2008;Pidgeon, Turner, & Blockley, 1991;Rose-Davis, Van Woensel, Abidi, Stringer, & Abidi, 2022;Yuen & Richards, 1993;Zhang, Wang, & Li, 2023), used to code, categorize and relate qualitative data. Grounded theory gives a clear methodology for knowledge elicitation for building qualitative knowledge bases.…”
