The Promotion of Eating Behaviour Change through Digital Interventions - 0 views

      How to use technology to affect/ modify eating behavior
  • s. The efficiency of all the interventions increased when coupled with tailored feedback and counselling. It was established that the scalable and sustainable properties of digital interventions have the potential to bring about adequate changes in the eating behaviour of individuals. Further research should concentrate on the appropriate personalisation of the interventions, according to the requirements of the individuals, and proper integration of behaviour change techniques to motivate long-term adherence.
  • Mediating variables, which can be personal, physical, environmental, behavioural, or familial, are important in the formation of dietary behaviours [13]. The most effective way to install changes in dietary behaviour is to alter one or more of the mediating variables [13]. For example, most children readily eat fruits and vegetables that they are familiar with [14], which may limit the variety of choices available to them. By exposing children to a greater variety of fruits and vegetables by increasing availability at home

  • Designing interventions to change dietary behaviour is a complex process, which includes identifying and prioritising all mediating variables, defining the types of change that are needed, and then implementing appropriate policies
  • Most strategies are currently based on intuition and the social, cultural, and economic characteristics of the target population rather than evidence-based interventions. Because different individuals may respond differently to the same message, additional research in the area of behavioural science is needed to develop strategic policies that will be effective for the majority of people in the community.

      I remember my those embarrassing, funny, and romantic (very seldom) stories, at the turning of the Millennium more than 10 year ago, to meet "Netfriends" after talking on QQ. :-)

Can Big Data and Privacy Coexist? - 0 views

  •  
    "Big Data" describes vast data sets that, when analyzed by algorithms, may reveal patterns, associations, and trends. In particular, these findings relate to human behavior and interactions. These data sets are treasure troves and -- when unlocked by the correct algorithm -- can release powerful findings.

    Interesting article about Pinterest use and gender. Also interesting because they talk quite plainly about their data collection method.

    https://www-tandfonline-com.proxy.lib.fsu.edu/doi/full/10.1080/10508422.2018.1516148?src=recsys This article is also about ethical issues, but deals with the field of psychotherapy (and doctoral students in clincical psychology - the education link.

    Thank you for sharing that article! It is really interesting and similar to the concerns addressed in the first article. I just do not understand the default assumption and position that self-disclosure in online spaces will damage the interaction between the stakeholders. In the end, they (e.g., student-teacher, doctor-patient) both perform what they are expected to perform in a work-related context. Self-disclosing individual aspects should not discredit one's expertise, credibility, etc. I am curious about your perspectives. :-)

    Thank you for the reply! What struck me as valid about the article is that for some relationships, there is no self-disclosure on one side, and maximun self-disclosure on the other. The article talked about psychotherapists. Typically, the individual in therapy knows nothing or very little about the therapist, while the therapist gets to know the person in theapy quite well - one supposes. While I personally would like to know something about the "personness" of a therapist, prevailing opinion is that, should the person in therapy gain knowledge of the therapist through social media, it would damage the theraputic relationship. Same thing with doctors. Perhaps the same thing with priests. I'm a bit paranoid about too much self-disclosure, except for the ADHD thing, so if I where a therapist, I would be OK. However, if I blogged on my struggles with Therapy School, thoughts about patients, etc... I would be more worried. Actually,blogging about patients might cause you to lose your license... and it should! I know all this because my husband is a psychologist. It's almost impossible to have a conversation about his work without violating some ethical code or another. :-)

    I think I agree with you in the idea that in some relationships there is no mutual disclosure because we expect and accept a level of certain patterns of behavior or let's say self-disclosure. As you have mentioned, while we do not anticipate a therapist to self-disclose 'personal' aspects, the same goes with the person. S/he is expected to self-disclose. I am not familiar with the therapist/person interaction, but I can make connections from my personal experiences. They both have 'preferred, expected' rights and duties in relation to each other. While a therapist may be legitimate to know whether the person is ADHD or not or whatsoever, it sounds reasonable. However, when it comes to the person whether the therapist is an ADHD or whatsoever, wait! A therapist and ADHD??? No way. I wish I read about an expert's perspectives in a blog form that may potentially heal my wounds or others. But at the same time, it is not easy to establish. One of the tensions that I need to resolve, in the end. I am glad that you shared your experiences. Such a nurturing conversation. :-)

How Americans use Twitter: Key takeaways from our new study | Pew Research Center - 9 views

  • Most U.S. adult Twitter users don’t engage much.

      Most Twitter users are lurkers... what do you all think about that?
  • A new Pew Research Center study goes a step further. First, we asked survey respondents whether they use Twitter and, if so, for permission to look at their Twitter accounts. After reviewing each account, we quantified these Americans’ tweets, likes, followers and followings. The result is the Center’s first study of Twitter behavior that’s based on a representative sample of U.S. adults who use the platform.

    I can definitely see most Twitter users being lurkers. I lurk on Instagram quite a bit, but I have become more active in liking posts since taking this class!
  •  
    I am also an Instagram lurker. I was curious and looked at my three most recent posts... June 2, May 9, and March 2! Very little production happening.

    I am an invisible learner on Instagram. I have never posted on Instagram, but just like some of the posts. :-)

    I'm definitely a lurker when it comes to Twitter.
