Pledges for Exergaming Research

The Exergame Network is running an initiative to help bring new researchers into the field of exergaming. See the page on our wiki site that outlines this project - http://exergaming.pbworks.com/w/page/54632210/Exergaming%20Funding

In order to make exergaming an attractive proposition as a field of study we are reaching out to the network and exergamers world wide to pledge resources. Any help you can give is great, it could be as little as an hour on Skype with a student to fine tune a research question or as much as donation of exergaming equipment to be the subject of a study!

PhD Defense: Comparing MVPA, EE, RPE, & Enjoyment in Adolescents Playing Exergames

A couple of weeks ago I defended my dissertation titled: "Comparing MVPA, Duration, EE, RPE & Enjoyment of Adolescents Playing Exergames". I would like to thank everyone who has been so helpful and instrumental in getting me to this point, especially my Committee Chair Dr. Melissa Bopp; Committee Members:  Dr. Linda Caldwell, Dr. R. Scott Kretchmar, Dr. Karl Newell; and Dr. John Challis (former Grad Coordinator) all of Penn State University; PSU & SUNY Cortland Faculty and Staff; the Cortland YMCA staff and participants, and of course my wonderful and loving family. Some of the details have been omitted as the separate papers are in the process of being submitted to separate journals but it gives you a rough estimate of what I was investigating. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
