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、政府和商业部门应对这一流行病。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是有限的低收入社区，因为干预措施的设计很少考虑健康相关行为的社会和环境背景。个人健康记录（PHR）可以帮助个人获得个性化的反馈和权威的健康信息，但由于隐私，可用性和更新问题而没有被广泛采用。该提案的研究目标是发现如何将PHR整合到日常生活中，并使个人能够通过隐私界面自信地保护他们的PHR数据。本研究以社区为基础，通过反复的参与式设计活动，包括情境访谈、设计研讨会、影子活动和原型的反复评估，开发了一个名为“健康桥”的综合PHR框架。研究方法和结果将纳入PI？学校开设了健康相关课程和健康相关信息学专业本科课程。此外，PI和她的学生将通过开发将由国家妇女IT中心和计算机科学教师协会路演活动分发的宣传材料，帮助增加未来信息学家的管道。
