Point systems in Games for Health: A bibliometric scoping study

Methodology: To shed some light on this topic a bibliometric study, analyzing the papers containing terms related to games for health and point systems was performed and a mini taxonomy was derived. The search string game* AND health AND (point* OR score) AND system* in a Scopus bibliographic database was used to produce the corpus. We limited the search to articles, reviews and conference papers written in English and to topics related to medical, health and social subjects. The corpus papers abstracts and titles were analysed by VOSviewer and a scientific landscape was generated. The landscape clusters were transformed into a mini – taxonomy.
