Following my prior post Serious Games As An Alternative To Traditional Depression Treatments, Litesprite is looking for its first set
of beta testers for the mobile Serious Game SinaSprite.
Litesprite
is one of the winners of Robert
Wood Johnson Foundation’s competition “Games To Generate Data Challenge”
that targets population health. They are building games to target a variety of
chronic health conditions like
stress, anxiety/depression, diabetes or asthma and were recently
featured on NPR's KUOW Morning Edition and NBC King 5's Tech Talk.
The game being tested, SinaSprite, helps
people manage stress, anxiety, and depression.
Testers get:
1. Free access to a 6 week program that teaches
proven stress management techniques
2. Free access to an on-demand self-help tool
3. Progress report at the end of the study
If you or a friend would like to participate in the
study, please reply to socks at litesprite.com
Tester Requirements:
1. Age 18 years or older.
2. English-speaking.
3. In possession of a personal iPhone (iOs 8)
or Android phone or tablet (Kindle, Nook) capable of downloading the SinaSprite
game for use during the study.
