Responses of candidate intensity measures to different mental and motor load levels using upper limb exergames in typically developing children and adolescents. [PDF]
BackgroundIn (pediatric) neurorehabilitation, high-intensity therapy is well-recognized for enhancing rehabilitative outcomes. However, measures that consider the different aspects of therapy intensity are lacking.

Measuring the intensity of conflicts in conservation [PDF]
Abstract Conflicts between the interests of biodiversity conservation and other human activities pose a major threat to natural ecosystems and human well‐being, yet few methods exist to quantify their intensity and model their dynamics.
