The EMOINAD Guide construction proposal: An emotive interface design guide for attention deficit disorder in children

Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2016, Vol 9, Issue 4

Abstract

This article presents a proposal for construction of a guide which aims to contribute to the lack of guidelines for the design of therapeutic interfaces for attention deficit disorder in children, and describes the first version of the EMOINAD Guide (Emotive Interfaces for Attention Deficit) methodology. The EMOINAD Guide is composed of a set of design principles contributing to interfaces design for the treatment of children with this specific need. This paper examines the problematic situation, then, describes the state of art of attention deficit therapy applications and presents the developed methodology. A preliminary approximation of one of the design guidelines included in the Guide is also performed.
