Popis: |
Obesity is increasing in the pediatric population and it represents an important risk factor for the life-long development of several diseases. The aim of this work is to reduce children obesity through an educational program delivered through a mobile application. Novelties of our approach are the involvement of the families in the program and a design inspired to psychological/behavioral change theories, with the aim of maximizing the chance of patients’ compliance to the program. A pilot usability and acceptability study has been performed on ten children aged 6-12 years using a questionnaire to evaluate eight system features on a Likert scale from 1 to 5. Encouraging results were obtained: mean scores were all above 3. |
