Personal informatics in practice
CHI '12 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2012Personal informatics refers to a class of software and hardware systems that help individuals collect personal information to improve self-understanding. Improving self-understanding can foster self-insight and promote positive behaviors: healthy living, energy conservation, etc. The development of personal informatics applications poses new challenges

Disasters in personal informatics
Proceedings of the 2014 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing: Adjunct Publication, 2014Though never a desirable outcome, failure is an inevitable part of research. Too often, however, the tried but failed paths are lost in the translation of work to publication. With the pragmatics of publishing (e.g., page limits) and the academic emphasis on positive outcomes, failed processes, methodologies, study designs, and technologies are ...

Personal informatics and reflection
CHI '13 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems, 2013Personal informatics systems that help people both collect and reflect on various kinds of personal information are growing rapidly. Despite the importance of journaling and the main role it has in tracking one's personal growth, a limited number of studies have examined journaling in the area of personal informatics in detail.

Personal informatics weave your numbers
2014 International Conference on Contemporary Computing and Informatics (IC3I), 2014There are often several interconnected complex factors affecting one's healthy behavior. Visualization of a single factor, as current tools provide, is limited and makes overall analysis difficult. We describe a system that supports both the self-monitoring of vital statistics as well as the collaborative exploratory analysis of multivariate contextual

Social Issues in Personal Informatics
Companion of the 2018 ACM Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work and Social Computing, 2018An abundance of digital tools exist for tracking various aspects of one's life, body, health, and activities. These personal informatics (PI) and quantified self (QS) technologies are designed to help users capture, reflect on, and get actionable feedback about personal information.

The Young Person’s Guide to Biomedical Informatics
Methods of Information in Medicine, 2006Summary Objective: To draw a parallel between the challenges by which a research department in biomedical informatics is confronted and those of a symphony orchestra; in both areas different disciplines and various groups of instruments can be discerned. Method: Retrospective, personal

Motivational affordances and personality types in personal informatics
Proceedings of the 2014 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing: Adjunct Publication, 2014Personal informatics applications have been gaining momentum with the introduction of implicit data collection and alert mechanisms on smart phones. A need for customized design of these applications is emerging and studies on tailoring UI design based on the personality traits of users are well established.

Personal informatics in everyday life
Proceedings of the 2015 ACM International Joint Conference on Pervasive and Ubiquitous Computing and Proceedings of the 2015 ACM International Symposium on Wearable Computers - UbiComp '15, 2015Personal informatics is becoming increasingly prevalent. The lived informatics perspective considers the everyday behaviors people experience while tracking, such as switching tools, forgetting to track, or giving up on tracking. My work furthers theory, design, and implementation of lived informatics in technology. I contribute a theoretical framework
