This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5). The increase in obesity and related chronic illnesses has motivated academic, government, and commercial sectors to address this epidemic. Assistive technology interventions provide an inexpensive method to disseminate information, track health metrics, and give personalized feedback on outcomes for individuals. However the effectiveness of these interventions is limited for low-income communities because the interventions have been designed with little consideration for the social and environmental context of health-related behaviors. Personal Health Records (PHRs) can assist individuals receive personalized feedback and authoritative health information, but have not been widely adopted because of privacy, usability, and updating issues. The research objectives of this proposal are to discover how to integrate PHRs into everyday life and empower individuals to confidently secure their PHR data with privacy interfaces. The research is relies upon community-based, iterative, participatory design activities including contextual interviews, design workshops, shadowing, and iterative evaluation of prototypes to develop a integrative PHR framework called Health Bridge.The research supporting Health Bridge includes community building, curriculum design, and K-12 outreach activities. Research methodology and results will be integrated into the PI?s established health related course and specialized undergraduate curriculum in health related informatics. In addition, the PI and her students will help increase the pipeline of future informaticians by developing outreach materials that will be distributed by the National Center for Women & IT and the Computer Science Teachers Association Roadshow initiatives.

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。肥胖和相关慢性疾病的增加促使学术界、政府和商业部门着手解决这一流行病。辅助技术干预提供了一种廉价的方法来传播信息，跟踪健康指标，并为个人提供个性化的结果反馈。然而，这些干预措施的有效性对低收入社区是有限的，因为这些干预措施的设计很少考虑到与健康有关的行为的社会和环境背景。个人健康记录（phr）可以帮助个人接收个性化的反馈和权威的健康信息，但由于隐私、可用性和更新问题，尚未被广泛采用。本提案的研究目标是发现如何将医疗记录整合到日常生活中，并使个人能够自信地通过隐私接口保护他们的医疗记录数据。该研究依赖于以社区为基础的、迭代的、参与式的设计活动，包括上下文访谈、设计研讨会、阴影和原型的迭代评估，以开发一个称为健康桥梁的综合PHR框架。支持健康桥的研究包括社区建设、课程设计和K-12外展活动。研究方法和结果将纳入PI？开设健康相关课程和健康相关信息学专业本科课程。此外，PI和她的学生将通过编写外联材料来帮助增加未来信息学家的管道，这些材料将由国家妇女与信息技术中心和计算机科学教师协会路演倡议分发。
