  • Psychiatric manifestations of epilepsy in children and adolescents
    Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2001
    Co-Authors: Stewart Gabel, Deb Saikaly
    Abstract:

    There is a high incidence of psychiatric difficulties in children and adolescents with epilepsy. The severity and range of the problems that exist are broad. In pseudoseizures, which may coexist with true epileptic seizures, the primary problem is psychiatric. Optimal management of children and adolescents with epilepsy involves a team approach, or at least a multidisciplinary effort, with close coordination between neurologist, primary health care provider, mental health Professional, Psychologist, educational specialist, and other providers ( eg , physical therapist), depending on the associated features and particular case. Because many children and adolescents with epilepsy ultimately will be taking psychotropic medication and because of their psychiatric difficulties, a knowledge of interactions between anticonvulsants and psychotropic medication is crucial.

  • ESCAP: Towards the Design of an AI Architecture for a Virtual Counselor to Tackle Students' Exam Stress
    2012 45th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 2012
    Co-Authors: Tarashankar Rudra, Manning Li, Manolya Kavakli
    Abstract:

    Exam stress is a common predicament faced by students of all age groups and cultures. Unfortunately, it has neither created much consternation in the society nor attracted much interest for serious research, perhaps due to its impulsive causal nature that disappears almost instantly after the exams are over. Stress in optimal level can stimulate students to achieve their personal best in their exams. However, one of the greatest threats to the well-being of students arises due to the fallout of excessive stress, which, if not addressed timely may not only lead to failure in exams, but result in serious debilitating consequences including insomnia, depression and even suicide. Our research aims to design a human computer interaction (HCI) interface using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques for modeling a virtual exam-stress counsellor ESCAP, an embodied conversational agent with facial animation, advice and intelligence of a Professional Psychologist to support undergraduate students in managing their exam stress.
