Two sides

The Self

Graves disease

The Research

Why

• Interviews and talks learned us that people have to be confronted with a serious happening before they think about their life. Something happens and then there is the reflection

• BUT change is not easy, unless you have to. And even then.

• My shock, Graves disease at severe stadium. If I would have monitored myself, I would have known things were changing rapidly – raging heart, very irritated, losing kilo’s, tremor, moods, etc... (2000)

• Changed my whole lifestyle, upside down, that took years. The recovery, the process, until the feel good moment. Why? - because this was not meant to happen twice.

Thoughts

• Self-tracking takes time (current behavior

towards goals)

• Short term tracking versus long term tracking

• Instant gratification versus longer term

thinking

• Perception and the data

• Find people who don’t think you show weird

behavior – social acceptance.

Simplicity factors depending on

person and context to create more

ability, the more ability the more

motivation

- Time (planning, time available)

- Money

- Braincycles (cognitive effort)

- Physical effort (planning of

physical activity)

- Social acceptance/out of the

ordinary

- Non-Routine

Research set up When? 7 month study (2012-13) Who? Non-early adoptors of selftracking with BodyMedia device

Experimental group (N= 10) and Control group (N= 7) US – San Francisco and Belgium – Ghent area

Research question Is 24/7 self-monitoring creating enough awareness and persuasion to get a balanced lifestyle? Will self-monitoring affect general wellbeing among self-monitored people?

Phase Fall ‘12: 3 core motivators: sensation: pleasure, ‘new’, ‘curiosity’ anticipation: hope, trigger to chage something social cohesion: being part of a cool thing, group feeling

Phase Winter ‘12-’13 8 out of 10 experimenters stop selftracking

device created dependencies: without device =

Back to old routines, less awareness

Phase Spring ‘ 13 3 core motivators turn into negative behavior with some participants: Sensation: ‘new’ & ‘curiosity’ gone Anticipation: confrontation with data Social cohesion: rejection, outside world reactions Ability factors/Context factors:

Device: Fall: feels comfortable, identifies with it, but first signs of ‘Out of the ordinary’ Spring: doing good = takes time, less comfort in long time wearing, outsiders remarks ‘Out of the ordinary’ Behavior: Fall: small changes creating routines instructed, brain cycles (cognitive investment) made Spring: due to stop, routine not estasblished, lack of maintenance in habit forming and cognitive effort Culture and season: Culture: SF vibrant city, nature aspects, attractive to be active. BE city vs rural area, latter more attractive Season: SF weather is a trigger to go outside. BE seasonal effect, weather dependency high, less activity
