Dr. Regan Mandryk pioneered the area of affective physiological evaluation for computer games in her Ph.D. research with support from Electronic Arts. With over 200 publications that have been cited over 10000 times (including one of Google Scholar’s 10 classic papers in HCI from 2006), she continues to investigate novel ways of understanding players and their experiences, but also develops and evaluates games for health and wellbeing, and games that foster interpersonal relationships.
