dc.description.abstractPeople with schizophrenia and other related disorders experience great difficulties in getting the appropriate treatment regarding not only the type of interventions available but also the conditions that required for a proper treatment, mainly cost, locale, and frequency. The use of gamified mHelath applications for this population is a proven way to provide a set of tools that may help patients to manage their condition using applications on mobile devices, like smartphones, that implemente game-like strategies and elements that transform unpleasant tasks into virtual challenges. This chapter addresses the impact and implications that the use of gamified mHealth applications have for people with schizophrenia, a comprehensive guide of recommendations and standards used by the industry on the development of gamified applications and provides a literature review on the subject.
