CAREER Using Positive Emotion Regulation

项目摘要

The project advances human-centered design research by integrating positive emotion regulation (PER) theory into the design of future technologies. Our daily use of smartphones, appliances, and social media can engender pleasurable moments, but they do not inherently lead to improved well-being. People adapt to the joys of using technologies, then find them mundane. Some positive emotions can cause deconstructive behaviors, such as over-engagement on social media. The project investigates designing technologies to support positive emotion regulation in young adults, a population whose mental health can be impacted by limited emotion regulation skills and challenges to accessing traditional health interventions. Practical design methods and tools for the development of such technologies are being generated by incorporating perspectives of design professionals through a series of co-creative workshops and seminars. A toolkit and methods reflecting insights into emotion regulation is being developed and disseminated to help designers create innovative and evidence-based emotion-managing technologies. The project promotes STEM education for underserved students through novel community-engagement programs that encourage students to think critically about how everyday technologies shape human emotion and behavior.The project explores how positive emotions can be effectively regulated through technology and how technology-mediated positive emotions can contribute to well-being. While traditional research assumes a direct impact of technology on user emotions (e.g., manipulation of an artifact’s appearance), this project builds on findings that the impact of technology on emotion regulation is indirect, because it is mediated by users’ activities (e.g., visualizing positive things one did/will do with the technology). Through co-creative, research-through-design methods, the project investigates positive emotion regulation by: (1) analyzing the roles of everyday technology in reinforcing and prolonging positive emotional experiences; (2) developing interactive digital and tangible artifact prototypes (e.g., interactive installations, IoT devices, and apps); (3) evaluating prototypes’ effects on well-being; and (4) translating resulting insights into design methods and tools that support the development of PER technologies to promote well-being. The project discovers new understandings of the relationships between technologies, activities, positive emotions, and well-being.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目通过将积极情绪调节（PER）理论整合到未来技术的设计中，推进以人为本的设计研究。我们日常使用智能手机、电器和社交媒体可以带来愉快的时刻，但它们并不能从本质上改善幸福感。人们适应了使用技术的乐趣，然后发现它们很平凡。一些积极的情绪会导致破坏性的行为，比如在社交媒体上的过度参与。该项目研究设计技术，以支持年轻人的积极情绪调节，他们的心理健康可能受到有限的情绪调节技能和挑战的影响，以获得传统的健康干预措施。通过一系列共同创造讲习班和研讨会，吸收设计专业人员的观点，正在制定开发这种技术的实用设计方法和工具。一个反映情绪调节见解的工具包和方法正在开发和传播，以帮助设计师创造创新和基于证据的情绪管理技术。该项目通过新颖的社区参与计划，鼓励学生批判性地思考日常技术如何塑造人类的情感和行为，以促进对服务水平低下的学生的STEM教育。该项目探讨了如何通过技术有效地调节积极情绪，以及技术介导的积极情绪如何有助于幸福。虽然传统的研究假设技术对用户情绪的直接影响（例如，人工制品外观的操纵），该项目建立在技术对情绪调节的影响是间接的发现之上，因为它是由用户的活动介导的（例如，可视化一个人已经/将要用技术做的积极的事情）。通过共同创造，研究通过设计的方法，该项目调查积极的情绪调节：（1）分析日常技术在加强和延长积极的情绪体验中的作用;（2）开发交互式数字和有形的人工制品原型（例如，互动装置、物联网设备和应用程序）;（3）评估原型对福祉的影响;（4）将由此产生的见解转化为设计方法和工具，支持PER技术的开发，以促进福祉。该项目发现了对技术、活动、积极情绪和福祉之间关系的新理解。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
