Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

5. Lesson 3: Edit data and revise worksheetsEach lesson includes a list of suggested tasks and a set of test questions.
6. Create your first workbook Overview: Creating a workbook You've been asked to enter data in Excel, but you're not familiar with the program and wonder how to do some of the basics. This is the place to learn the skills you need to work in Excel—how to create a workbook, enter and edit different kinds of data, and add and delete columns and rows—quickly and with little fuss.
11. Create your first workbook Meet the workbook When you start Excel you're faced with a big empty grid. There are letters across the top, numbers down the left side, tabs at the bottom named Sheet1 and so forth. If you're new to Excel, you may wonder what to do next. We'll begin by helping you get comfortable with some Excel basics that will guide you when you enter data in Excel. How do you get started in Excel?
12. Create your first workbook Workbooks and worksheets When you start Excel, you open a file called a workbook. Each new workbook comes with three worksheets, like pages in a document. You enter data into the worksheets. Each worksheet has a name on its sheet tab at the bottom left of the workbook window: Sheet1, Sheet2, and Sheet3. You view a worksheet by clicking its sheet tab. A blank worksheet in a new workbook
13. Create your first workbook Workbooks and worksheets The first workbook you open is called Book1 in the title bar at the top of the window until you save it with your own title. Sheet tabs are at the bottom of the workbook window. A blank worksheet in a new workbook It’s a good idea to rename the sheet tabs to make the information on each sheet easier to identify.
14. Create your first workbook Workbooks and worksheets You can add additional worksheets if you need more than three. Or if you don’t need as many as three, you can delete one or two (but you don’t have to). You can also use keyboard shortcuts to move between sheets. A blank worksheet in a new workbook
15. Create your first workbook Workbooks and worksheets You may be wondering how to create a new workbook if you’ve already started Excel. Here’s how: On the File menu, click New. In the New Workbook task pane, click Blank workbook. A blank worksheet in a new workbook
16. Create your first workbook Columns, rows, and cells Columns, rows, and cells: That’s what worksheets are made of, and that’s the grid you see when you open up a workbook. Columns go from top to bottom on the worksheet, vertically. Rows go from left to right on the worksheet, horizontally. A cell is the place where one column and one row meet. Columns and rows
17. Create your first workbook Columns, rows, and cells Columns and rows have headings: Each column has an alphabetical heading at the top. Each row has a numeric heading. Columns and rows
18. Create your first workbook Columns, rows, and cells The first 26 columns have the letters from A through Z. Each worksheet contains 256 columns in all, so after Z the letters begin again in pairs, AA through AZ, as the picture shows. Row headings go from 1 through 65,536. Column and row headings
19. Create your first workbook Columns, rows, and cells The alphabetical headings on the columns and the numerical headings on the rows tell you where you are in a worksheet when you click a cell. The headings combine to form the cell address, also called the cell reference. There are 16,777,216 cells to work in on each worksheet. You could get lost without the cell reference to tell you where you are. Column and row headings
20. Create your first workbook Cells are where the data goes Cells are where you get down to business and enter data in a worksheet. The active cell is outlined in black.
21. Create your first workbook Cells are where the data goes When you open a new workbook, the first cell in the upper-left corner of the worksheet you see is outlined in black, indicating that any data you enter will go there. You can enter data wherever you like by clicking any cell in the worksheet to select the cell. But the first cell (or nearby) is not a bad place to start entering data in most cases. The active cell is outlined in black.
22. Create your first workbook Cells are where the data goes When you select any cell, it becomes the active cell. When a cell is active, it is outlined in black, and the headings for the column and the row in which the cell is located are highlighted. The active cell is outlined in black.
23. Create your first workbook Cells are where the data goes For example, if you select a cell in column C on row 5: Column C is highlighted. Row 5 is highlighted. The active cell is shown in the Name Box in the upper-left corner of the worksheet. Cell C5 is selected and is the active cell.
24. Create your first workbook Cells are where the data goes The selected cell has a black outline and is known as C5, which is the cell reference. You can see the cell reference of the active cell by looking in theName Box in the upper-left corner. Cell C5 is selected and is the active cell.
25. Create your first workbook Cells are where the data goes All of these indicators are not too important when you’re right at the very top of the worksheet in the very first few cells. But when you work further and further down or across the worksheet, they can really help you out. Cell C5 is selected and is the active cell. And it’s important to know the cell reference if you need to tell someone where specific data is located in a worksheet.

31. Create your first workbook Test 1, question 3 In a new worksheet, you must start by typing in cell A1. (Pick one answer.) True. False.
32. Create your first workbook Test 1, question 3: Answer False. You’re free to roam and type wherever you want. Click in any cell and start to type. But don’t make readers scroll to see data that could just as well start in cell A1 or A2.
34. Create your first workbook Enter data You can enter two basic kinds of data into worksheet cells: numbers and text. You can use Excel to create budgets, work with taxes, record student grades, or even track daily exercise or the cost of a remodel. Professional or personal, the possibilities are nearly endless. Now let’s dive in to data entry. You can use Excel to enter all sorts of data.
35. Create your first workbook Start with column titles (be kind to readers) When you enter data, it’s a good idea to start by entering titles at the top of each column, so that anyone who shares your worksheet can understand what the data means (and so that you can understand it yourself, later on). You’ll often want to enter row titles too. Worksheet with column and row titles
36. Create your first workbook Start with column titles (be kind to readers) In the picture: The column titles are the months of the year, across the top of the worksheet. The row titles down the left side are company names. Worksheet with column and row titles

Press TAB and ENTER to move from cell to cell.
41. Create your first workbook Enter dates and times To enter a date in column B, the Date column, you should use a slash or a hyphen to separate the parts: 7/16/2005 or 16-July-2005. Excel will recognize this as a date. Text aligned on the left and dates on the right
42. Create your first workbook Enter dates and times If you need to enter a time, you would type the numbers, a space, and then “a” or “p” — for example, 9:00 p. If you put in just the number, Excel recognizes a time and enters it as AM. Tip: To enter today’s date, press CTRL and the semicolon together. To enter the current time, press CTRL and SHIFT and the semicolon all at once. Text aligned on the left and dates on the right
43. Create your first workbook Enter numbers To enter the sales amounts in column C, the Amount column, you would type the dollar sign, followed by the amount. Excel aligns numbers on the right side of cells.

58. Create your first workbook Edit data and revise worksheets Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, and sometimes data that you entered correctly needs to be changed later on. Sometimes the whole worksheet needs a change. In this lesson we'll learn how to edit data and how to add and delete worksheet columns and rows. Edit data, insert columns, and insert rows.
59. Create your first workbook Edit data Say that you meant to enter Peacock’s name in cell A2, but you entered Buchanan’s name by mistake. Now you spot the error and want to correct it. Two ways to select a cell
60. Create your first workbook Edit data You need to select the cell, and there are two ways: Double-click a cell to edit the data in it. Click the cell, and then edit the data in the formula bar. Two ways to select a cell
61. Create your first workbook Edit data What’s the difference? Your convenience. You may find the formula bar, or the cell itself, easier to work with. If you’re editing data in many cells, you can keep your pointer at the formula bar while you move from cell to cell by using the keyboard. Two ways to select a cell
62. Create your first workbook Edit data As the picture shows, after you select the cell: The worksheet says Edit in the lower-left corner, on the status bar. If you don’t see the status bar, click Status Bar on the View menu. The worksheet now says Edit in the status bar.
63. Create your first workbook Edit data While the worksheet is in Edit mode, many commands are temporarily unavailable (these commands are gray on the menus). What can you do? Well, you can delete letters or numbers by pressing BACKSPACE, or by selecting them and then pressing DELETE. The worksheet now says Edit in the status bar.
64. Create your first workbook Edit data You can edit letters or numbers by selecting them and then typing something different. You can insert new letters or numbers into the cell’s data by positioning the insertion point and typing them. The worksheet now says Edit in the status bar.
65. Create your first workbook Edit data Whatever you do, when you’re all through, remember to press ENTER or TAB so that your changes stay in the cell. The worksheet now says Edit in the status bar.
66. Create your first workbook Remove data formatting Surprise! Someone else has used your worksheet, filled in some data, and made the number in cell C6 bold and red to highlight the fact that Peacock made the highest sale. But that customer changed her mind, so the final sale was much smaller. Formatting stays with the cell.
67. Create your first workbook Remove data formatting You go to make the fix. The original number is formatted bold and red. You delete the original figure. You enter a new number. Bold and red again! Formatting stays with the cell. What gives here?
68. Create your first workbook Remove data formatting What’s going on is that it’s the cell that is formatted, not the data in the cell. So when you delete data that has special formatting, you also need to delete the formatting from the cell. Until you do, any data you enter in that cell will have the special formatting. Formatting stays with the cell.
69. Create your first workbook Remove data formatting To remove formatting, select the cell and point to Clear on the Edit menu. The Formats command removes the format from the cell. Or you can click All to remove both the data and the formatting at the same time. You can remove cell formatting.
