This workshop explores innovative approaches in designing technologies that promote behavioral change and autonomy, with a focus on health. By framing behavior change as a design problem, we aim to create systems that empower individuals to become the best versions of themselves. The discussion highlights the importance of autonomy, social inclusion, and competence in fostering well-being and resilience, especially for individuals managing chronic conditions. We will examine strategies for enhancing motivation, social connections, and utilizing local resources to support positive lifestyle changes.

How should we think about behavior change as a design problem?
One Framing Build technologies that can persuade people to change behavior
Another Framing Build technologies that can help the user become the person she/he wants to be
Build technologies that can help the user become the person she/he wants to be Idea-level Independence, but within Interdependence Knowledge in context General Heuristic level Design properties Motivation Autonomy Social Inclusion Competences Personal-level
Why Autonomy? • Is necessary for wellbeing and optimal functioning (e.g., Ryan & Deci, 2000) • Represents (to us) a less ethically- problematic design stance • Supports active engagement in care • Might work better for supporting long-term change (?)
Why Social Inclusion? The success of lifestyle change is dependent on social connections, lifestyle and motivation
Why Competence ? Competence supports copingand resilience
Evidence from Chronic Care Self-care is especially important for patients with chronic conditions. Patients with higher autonomy, social- connectedness, and competence live longer, are more active, and better integrated in society
Connecting to Others • User-controlled sharing with clinicians • Ad-hoc sharing for motivation, social support, exchange of patient expertise • Timely (but subtle!) involvement of family and friends • Connecting to relevant resource in local community
