New Trends in Psychophysiology and Mental Health
This special issue belongs to the section “Biomedical Sensors“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The symposium explored how embedded sensors distributed through smart phones, wearables, cameras, and personal computing devices, which increasingly include immersive computing environments (e.g., AR, VR), cars, and homes (e.g. Alexa), are enabling naturalistic mental health support, treatment, as well as extension of the theoretical knowledge through objective, continous data collection of human behavior in naturalistic settings, such as in the home or while receiving treatment.
In this regard, we are soliciting high-quality papers in the following topics (but not limited to):
- Wearable computing
- Smart environments
- Biomedical devices
- Speech Analysis
- Big data for individual / public health
- Computational Psychometrics
- Combined sensing systems and infrastructures
- Computer-enhanced self reporting
- Machine learning and data mining methods
- Novel interfaces
- Usability studies
- Visualizations
- Augmented reality
- Virtual reality approaches
- Mental wellbeing support
- Stress / Emotional response analysis
- Affective computing
- Serious games for mental health
- Cognitive stimulation
- Life-logging methods
- Monitoring activities relevant to mental health
- Psychological treatments of mental disorders
- Systems to support patients and / or caregivers
- Using technology to improve the understanding of cognitive processes
- Tools for Neuropsychological Assessment and Rehabilitation
- Mental health promotion and disorders prevention
