Objectives
Objectives
To achieve the objectives of this UC it will be taught the basics of intervention in areas where Cyberspace, Behaviour and e-Therapy (CBT) has played a differentiating role. It is intended to provide skills concerning the comprehension of the intervention in various disorders using IT, particularly with regard to virtual reality and the internet. Thus, the UC is organized in 4OA: the LA1 seeks to introduce the concepts of CCT. LA2 and LA3 aim to discuss the different options for assessment, rehabilitation and intervention using digital systems in clinical psychology, health and neurocognitive rehabilitation, respectively. A focus on the different ethical and deontological aspects (LA4) and future directions of the CCT (OA5) is foreseen. This UC seeks to introduce basic and transversal concepts to the performance of students with training in Behavioural Sciences (e.g. Psychology) and in Engineering, and Computer Sciences.
