DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The SuperBetter Labs social game platform provides an affordable, digital platform for supportive social connections and gameful delivery of medical recommendations in the face of injuries or illnesses, such as mild traumatic brain injury. Applying principles of Positive Health, social connectedness, and gameful design, we guide a personalized experience of social support, optimistic meta-narrative, and evidence-based recommendations for patients. We imagine a world in which individuals can grow stronger - much stronger - even tapping into their heroic potential to become Super Better. In our platform, this transcendence is encouraged through game design that presents the hard work of rehabilitation within a unique gameful, social context. We believe that this platform is particulary promising for young individuals suffering with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), who have increased risk of anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts. Our social gaming platform shows promise to help these individuals remain personally connected and resilient in the face of persistent mTBI symptoms while reinforcing personalized medical recommendations for recovery as game play mechanics. In general, our technology has tremendous potential to bridge the gap between mHealth and gamification of medical practice while pioneering the application of positive health through social gaming. This application seeks to develop that potential to improve health care options for youth suffering from persistent symptoms post-brain injury. This project is innovative because we will provide the first evidence for the integration o social gaming within concussion care. This project is significant because it evaluates the feasibility of employing social gaming as a medical care aid.

描述（由申请人提供）：SuperBetter Labs 社交游戏平台提供了一个经济实惠的数字平台，用于支持性社交联系，并在受伤或疾病（例如轻度创伤性脑损伤）时以游戏方式提供医疗建议。应用积极健康、社会联系和游戏设计的原则，我们为患者提供个性化的社会支持体验、乐观的元叙事和基于证据的建议。我们想象一个世界，在这个世界中，个人可以变得更强大——更加强大——甚至可以发挥他们的英雄潜力，变得超级更好。在我们的平台中，通过游戏设计鼓励这种超越，在独特的游戏社交环境中呈现康复的艰辛工作。我们相信，这个平台对于患有轻度创伤性脑损伤 (mTBI) 的年轻人特别有前景，他们焦虑、抑郁和自杀念头的风险增加。我们的社交游戏平台有望帮助这些人在面对持续的 mTBI 症状时保持个人联系和恢复能力，同时作为游戏机制强化个性化的康复医疗建议。总的来说，我们的技术具有巨大的潜力，可以弥合移动医疗和医疗实践游戏化之间的差距，同时开创通过社交游戏应用积极健康的先河。该应用程序旨在开发这种潜力，以改善患有脑损伤后持续症状的青少年的医疗保健选择。该项目具有创新性，因为我们将为脑震荡护理中社交游戏的整合提供第一个证据。该项目意义重大，因为它评估了利用社交游戏作为医疗辅助手段的可行性。
