Socially Influencing Systems for Behavior Change @ MIT Media LabAgnis Stibe
We all are social beings by nature for ages. Today, the physical world shrinks as information and communication technologies bring us closer together by enabling new ways for socializing. At the same time, these technologies may not only serve as media channels but they can be designed with intent to influence our thoughts and actions.
ICCH 2011--Agenda-setting in Routine Ambulatory Encounters: Zackary Berger
Background: Although studies have demonstrated that physicians often fail to elicit the full spectrum of patient concerns, few studies have described the ways in which physicians elicit concerns and the extent to which they set an explicit agenda.
Methods: We performed a qualitative analysis of audio recorded, transcribed routine patient-provider encounters from the Enhancing Communication and HIV Outcomes (ECHO) Study. We developed themes related to whether and how providers elicit patient concerns and then set an agenda for the visit. We developed a coding scheme that we applied to a random selection of 2 encounters per provider (33 providers, 66 encounters total).
Findings: In 41/66 encounters, providers opened the visit with a general question (“How are you doing?”). Seven visits opened with a leading question (“Everything’s okay?”) and 1 with the provider explicitly asking which concerns s/the patient wanted to discuss. Patients more often responded to these opening questions with brief positive statements (“Fine”, n=30) than with actual concerns (n=14). In 12 encounters (18%), the provider continued to elicit concerns until the patient stated that s/he had no further concerns (probe to exhaustion). In 30 encounters, there was no agenda statement. When an agenda statement was made, it most often (n=20) centered on physicians’ priorities. Rarely, there was an agenda statement made by the patient (n=3) or one that was collaboratively negotiated (n=3). In 53% of encounters (n=35), patients brought up new concerns later in their visit.
Implications: Providers frequently use generic opening questions that may not be effective in eliciting patients’ concerns, and then do not continue to elicit further concerns. Negotiation of the visit agenda is rare, and new concerns continue to arise later in most encounters. Providers need further training to more effectively invest in the beginning of each encounter.

Socially Influencing Systems: PhD thesis of Dr. Agnis StibeAgnis Stibe
Organizations continuously strive to engage customers in the services development process. The social web facilitates this process by enabling novel channels for voluntary feedback-sharing and collaborative interaction through social media and technologically advanced environments. The component parts of these environments are information systems that are linked with social media and designed for large displays to support interactivity.
The work performed during this research involved the design and assessment of operational software features for encouraging user engagement through publicly displayed information systems. Drawing upon socio-psychological theories and interconnecting them to social influence design principles this dissertation examines the role of persuasive software features in altering human behavior with respect to engagement in feedback-sharing and collaborative interaction.
The results of these studies reveal interplay between the design principles and indicate that they have the capacity to improve the persuasiveness of information systems and predict the behavioral intentions of users to engage with such systems in the future. Based on these findings, a framework for studying socially influencing systems (SIS) is proposed. This framework is potentially instrumental in achieving a richer understanding of how to effectively harness social influence for enhanced user engagement through socio-technical environments and for the future development of persuasive information systems.
The premise of this talk: There is an ‘ideal’ route to an academic career which is what we hear about. It isn’t the only way. Sometimes taking in the scenery can be crucial to deciding what path you want to take. Everyone is different… this was my experience (i.e. I’m not offering recipes).

Title:
Adventure Therapy: Treatment Effectiveness and Applications with Australian Youth
Abstract:
This final seminar reviews the original contribution of Bowen’s (2016) PhD thesis to the field of adventure therapy. This thesis advances understanding of the therapeutic uses and treatment effectiveness of adventure therapy by systematically reviewing the efficacy of adventure therapy programs internationally (Study 1), providing an up-to-date profile of Australian outdoor adventure intervention programs for youth (Study 2), examining the efficacy of the Wilderness Adventure Therapy® model of clinical treatment for Australian youth (Study 3), and examining the efficacy of the PCYC Bornhoffen Catalyst program for Australian youth-at-risk (Study 4). Findings from this thesis strongly support the assertion that adventure therapy should be in the suite of therapeutic interventions that operate in diverse service settings across Australia.

Title:
A Meta-Analysis of Adventure Therapy Outcomes and Moderators
Abstract:
This presentation reports on a meta-analytic review of 197 studies of adventure therapy participant outcomes (2,908 effect sizes, 206 unique samples). The short-term effect size for adventure therapy was moderate (g = .47) and larger than for alternative (.14) and no treatment (.08) comparison groups. There was little change during the lead-up (.09) and follow-up periods (.03) for adventure therapy, indicating long-term maintenance of the short-term gains. The short-term adventure therapy outcomes were significant for seven out of the eight outcome categories, with the strongest effects for clinical and self-concept measures, and the smallest effects for spirituality/morality. The only significant moderator of outcomes was a positive relationship with participant age.

Preserving Privacy in Semantic-Rich Trajectories of Human MobilityRoberto Trasarti
The increasing abundance of data about the trajectories of
personal movement is opening up new opportunities for analyzing and mining human mobility, but new risks emerge
since it opens new ways of intruding into personal privacy.
Representing the personal movements as sequences of places
visited by a person during her/his movements - semantic
trajectory - poses even greater privacy threats w.r.t. raw
geometric location data. In this paper we propose a privacy model defining the attack model of semantic trajectory
linking, together with a privacy notion, called c-safety. This
method provides an upper bound to the probability of inferring that a given person, observed in a sequence of non-sensitive places, has also stopped in any sensitive location.
Coherently with the privacy model, we propose an algorithm
for transforming any dataset of semantic trajectories into a
c-safe one. We report a study on a real-life GPS trajectory dataset to show how our algorithm preserves interesting
quality/utility measures of the original trajectories, such as
sequential pattern mining results.

Bayesain Hypothesis of Selective Attention - Raw 2011 posterGiacomo Veneri
The aim of the study is to understand the process of target averaging during the selection process. We analyzed the probability to select the target after a fixation outside ROIs from the duration of fixations and the distance to the target. We aimed to respond to the question “is it possible to predict the selected area?” . In this study we tested the presence of information in non-ROI fixation data about the occurrence of a target at the next saccade. A classification algorithm was trained to predict the target vs. non-target outcome (dependent variable) of a saccade from summary statistics of fixation data (covariates). We claim that significantly accurate predictions are substantial evidence to support the hypothesis of "presence of information".
This presentation looks at some of the presenting issues for Third-Level students who are studying for a Masters Degree or Doctorate. It has a particular focus on the 'adult' learner or 'mature student'.
