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

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
