For the MAAC Project (Mood Assessment via Animated Characters) I developed a set of thematic/salient background designs for a diagnostic video game being developed for two age groups (pre-teen and teen) to assist in the diagnosis of children and adolescents with mood and anxiety disorders. Currently there are no aids to assist doctors in assessing children for mood or anxiety disorders, so this diagnostic program is a true innovation. It is currently being used on an evaluation basis to determine its validity/efficacy at Sick Kids hospital. To read more about MAAC, click here.
