Predictive Value of DeltoidTuberosity Index in PlateOsteosynthesis of ProximalF...
Seabra, Pedro; Gonçalves, Daniel; Pimentel, Miguel; Lourenço, Pedro; Frias, Miguel; Sarmento, AndréIntroduction: Proximal humerus fractures (PHF) are considered fragility fractures, with increasing incidence in the elderly. Several risk factors negatively influence osteosynthesis outcomes, including age, bone density and medial hinge comminution. Age ≥65 is often considered a decision threshold in treatment algorithms. The deltoid tuberosity index (DTI) is a simple, reproducible method to evaluate local bone...
Playing solo, against rivals, or in a team? Exploring individual, competitive, ...
Coelho, Franz; Rando, Belén; Bernardes, Rafael; Pontífice-Sousa, Patrícia; Gonçalves, Daniel; Abreu, Ana MariaWhile gamification is increasingly applied in education, research rarely compares distinct social dynamics and evaluates their cognitive, emotional, and motivational impact in a learning context. This study examines the effects of social gamification in education using a digital learning platform and a randomized controlled trial (RCT). Following research standards (CONSORT, Cochrane Collaboration, EVAT©), we c...
The impact of educational gamification on cognition, emotions, and motivation: ...
Coelho, Franz; Rando, Belén; Aparício, David; Pontífice-Sousa, Patrícia; Gonçalves, Daniel; Abreu, Ana MariaThis study examines the impact of gamification on education using a novel gamified digital learning platform and a randomized controlled trial (RCT) protocol. Following established research guidelines (CONSORT, Cochrane Collaboration, EVAT©), we assessed the individual and combined effects of points, badges, and challenges against a control group without gamification. The RCT evaluated participant characteristi...
HYBpy
Pedreira, José; Pinto, José; Gonçalves, Daniel; Barahona, Pedro; Oliveira, Rui; Costa, Rafael S.Hybrid modeling is gaining prominence in various industrial sectors because it offers a flexible balance between mechanistic and data-driven modeling. However, the adoption of such hybrid modeling techniques has been rather limited. Only few expert researchers using in-house tools have technical background and skills to develop such hybrid models worldwide. Additionally, freely available and user-friendly softw...
Critical review of the book “Responsible tourism: Using tourism for sustainable...
Gonçalves, DanielThe book Responsible Tourism: Using Tourism for Sustainable Development by Harold Goodwin (2011) is an essential reference for those looking to understand and apply the concept of responsible tourism. The work examines the challenges and opportunities in the sector, reflecting on the social, economic, and environmental changes that influence tourism today. Published by Goodfellow Publishers, it offers an in-dep...
The impact of game-based interventions on adult cognition: a systematic review
Coelho, Franz; Gonçalves, Daniel; Abreu, Ana MariaThis 10-year systematic review examines the impact of game-based interventions (GBI) on adult cognition, covering game-based learning and training, serious games, gamification, and exergames. The research followed PRISMA guidelines and Cochrane recommendations for bias assessment. We reviewed 1,398 articles and selected 42 studies (26 randomized trials, 16 non-randomized). Our findings highlight the influence o...
External and model validity in a systematic review of game-based interventions
Coelho, Franz; Gonçalves, Daniel; Abreu, Ana MariaGame-based learning, training, exercises, serious games, and gamification represent distinct approaches, integrating games into diverse contexts. Lately, interventions based on these approaches have gained popularity due to their potential to enhance cognitive outcomes. The term game-based intervention (GBI) was adopted to describe the use of all these playful processes with the goals of cognition and behavior ...
Exploring the role of conscientiousness on visualization-supported decision-making
Alves, Tomás; Delgado, Tiago; Henriques-Calado, Joana; Gonçalves, Daniel; Gama, SandraUnderstanding how visualizations can support decision-making continues to be one of the most relevant challenges in current research. However, prior work provides limited knowledge regarding how the decision-maker profile and, in particular, psychological constructs affect decision-making. Weighing how conscientiousness affects one’s tendency to follow the rules and prioritize tasks, this work explores if this ...
Leveraging Conscientiousness-Based Preferences in Information Visualization Design
Alves, Tomás; Ramalho, Bárbara; Gonçalves, Daniel; Henriques-Calado, Joana; Gama, SandraRecent research on information visualization has shown how individual differences such as personality mediate how users interact with visualization systems. Although there is a robust body of research on this relationship, these studies focus on a particular subset of personality constructs. Therefore, there are still personality traits with untapped potential that can provide new findings and inform the design...
Studying the resiliency of the anchoring bias to locus of control in visualization
Alves, Tomás; Velhinho, Ricardo; Henriques-Calado, Joana; Gonçalves, Daniel; Gama, SandraThe anchoring effect is the over-reliance on an initial piece of information when making decisions. It is one of the most pervasive and robust biases. Recently, literature has focused on knowing how influential the anchoring effect is when applied to information visualization, with studies finding its reproducibility in the field. Despite the extensive literature surrounding the anchoring effect’s robustness, t...
