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《美国复苏与再投资法》（公法111-5）资助的。肥胖和相关慢性疾病的增加促使学术，政府和商业部门解决这一流行病。辅助技术干预措施提供了一种廉价的方法，可以传播信息，跟踪健康指标并提供个性化个人结果的反馈。但是，对于低收入社区，这些干预措施的有效性受到限制，因为这些干预措施的设计几乎没有考虑到与健康相关的行为的社会和环境背景。个人健康记录（PHR）可以协助个人获得个性化的反馈和权威健康信息，但由于隐私，可用性和更新问题，并未被广泛采用。该提案的研究目标是发现如何将PHR整合到日常生活中，并授权个人与隐私界面确保其PHR数据确保其PHR数据。这项研究依赖于基于社区的，迭代，参与式设计活动，包括上下文访谈，设计研讨会，阴影以及对原型的迭代评估，以开发一个名为“健康桥梁”的集成PHR框架。研究支持Health Bridge包括社区建设，课程设计和K-12外展活动。研究方法和结果将集成到PI既定的与健康有关的课程中，并专门的与健康相关信息学的本科课程。此外，PI和她的学生将通过开发将由国家妇女与IT中心和计算机科学教师协会RoadShow计划分发的外展材料来帮助增加未来信息家的管道。
