Integrating technology in mental healthcare practice: A repeated cross-sectional survey study on professionals’ adoption of Digital Mental Health before and during Covid-19
As a consequence of the outbreak of the COVID-19 global pandemic in the spring of 2020, large-scale social distancing measures were implemented, resulting in the forced adoption of online or digital forms of psychological treatment. This sudden transition to digital care offered a unique opportunity to investigate if and how this experience impacted mental healthcare professionals' perceptions and use of Digital Mental Health tools. The current p…
I already forgot half of it’ – Interviewing people with dementia for co-designing an intelligent system
During the pre-design phase of supportive intelligent systems, interviews with future users, such as people with dementia, aim to explore the problems for which technology may present a solution. However, interviewing someone with dementia in this unstructured design phase is reported to be challenging resulting in systems that are not truly addressing the needs of the people with dementia. Existing guidelines on creating engaging interviews are …
Sharing biosignals: An analysis of the experiential and communication properties of interpersonal psychophysiology
Biosensing technologies have advanced to a level where measurements of our physiology have become easily accessible, and new areas of application are being explored, including interpersonal communication via biosignals. To date, it is largely unknown what the communication characteristics of biosignal sharing are and how they influence experiences of biosignal-mediated interactions. By conceptualizing biosignal sharing as a new communication medi…
Mental Health Care Goes Online: Practitioners' Experiences of Providing Mental Health Care During the Covid-19 Pandemic

Thinking of nature: Associations with natural versus urban environments and their relation to preference
People generally prefer natural over urban environments, but little is known about what people think about when they see these environments. The aim of the present study was to investigate the associations with these scenes and their relation with preference. In a series of three studies 336 participants were asked to generate associations with photos. Study One manipulated naturalness of the environment as well as weather type. The data were ana…
The natural context of wellbeing: Ecological momentary assessment of the influence of nature and daylight on affect and stress for individuals with depression levels varying from none to clinical
This paper explores how everyday encounters with two natural phenomena -natural elements and daylight- influence affect and stress levels for people differing in mental health. Nature and daylight exposure both have well-documented beneficial effects on mental health and affect but to what extent their exposure has beneficial effects in daily life is currently under investigated, as is the question whether lower mental health would make one more,…
Restoration in Its Natural Context: How Ecological Momentary Assessment Can Advance Restoration Research
More and more people use self-tracking technologies to track their psychological states, physiology, and behaviors to gain a better understanding of themselves or to achieve a certain goal. Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) also offers an excellent opportunity for restorative environments research, which examines how our physical environment (especially nature) can positively influence health and wellbeing. It enables investigating restorativ…
World of Warcraft, the aftermath: How game elements transfer into perceptions, associations and (day)dreams in the everyday life of massively multiplayer online role-playing game players
This paper describes the phenomenon of game-biased perceptions and associations, or how, through intensive game play, elements from the game world can trigger thoughts and imagery outside the game world, influencing the perception and interpretation of stimuli in everyday life. Examples include the insertion of game elements in thoughts, perceptions and dreams, the use of specific vocabulary or slang – typical to the game world – in everyday conv…

Effects of a vigorous walking program on body composition, and carbohydrate and lipid metabolism of obese young men
Dit onderzoek heeft tot doel uitgangspunten te formuleren voor het bouwen van een aantal wooneenheden voor psycho-geriatrische patiënten met bijbehorende voorzieningen in combinatie met het bouwen van een aantal woningen voor zelfstandig wonende ouderen, onder het beheer van één woningbouwvereniging. Door de verpleeghuizen De Herven in 's Hertogenbosch en Mariaoord in Rosmalen is een aanvraag ingediend. bij het Ministerie van Welzijn, Volksgezond…
