Digital Games for Rehabilitation and Recommender Apps with Privacy
Management for Disabled People***
I am a senior lecturer in Biomedical Engineering at the Universityof
Glasgowand I am carrying out this survey with an Italian colleague. We
are both disabled.
The survey covers two related studies on (i) digital games in the
rehabilitation of disabled people and (ii) mobile recommender apps with
privacy management for disabled people. It has ethical approval from
the Universityof Glasgow
Please do consider participating if you consider yourself disabled. Please contact me if you would like

There are also companion versions for teachers, therapists and other
professionals working with disabled people which will be available
online soon. Please contact me for the links.
Further information: There is increasing interest in the use of games in
education and rehabilitation and a large and ever increasing number of
mobile apps. There may therefore be potential for the use of games in
the rehabilitation of disabled people and the development of recommender
apps to aid disabled people in finding products that meet their needs.
Both rehabilitation games and mobile recommender apps may obtain
information about the user and the context. This raises the issues of
privacy management. However there are few studies which examine these
issues from the perspective of disabled people. This research is aimed
to fill these gaps. We aim to collect information, opinions,
suggestions and expectations about the use of (i) digital and
interactive games in the rehabilitation of disabled people and (ii) the
use of recommendation apps with privacy management for disabled people.
This brief questionnaire is intended for disabled people and the parents
of disabled children under 16, who will complete it on their behalf.
