Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction Characterizing stressful events reported by childhood cancer survivors experienced throughout the lifespan may help improve trauma‐informed care relevant to the survivor experience. Methods Participants included 2552 survivors (54% female; 34 years of age) and 469 community controls (62% female; 33 years of age) from the St.

Suffering-Centered Design [PDF]
Extended Abstracts of the 2020 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2020 Humans are skilled at closing their minds to the suffering of others. This paper argues that, over the past several decades, human computer interaction tools and techniques have both exacerbated and ameliorated this human tendency. It contributes a theoretical framework for thinking about the relationship between HCI and various forms of suffering, and
