  4. Best practices for designing an AT

  5. Learn the current practices of the participant How feeling? Not at all Very Much Happy Joyful Unhappy … Pleased Enjoyment Subject initials: ID: Pain unbearable Scared of pain Pain minor annoyance … I could not do activities … Y N Y N Y N Y N Paper vs. Electronic Diaries.

  7. Identify current trends Keeping track of performed actions Modifying behavior based on learned references Monitoring blood sugar level Attributing the change to a particular action(s) Noticing the change in blood sugar

  8. Expert/Practitioner review of information We have to know everything – what type of bread, how much mayo…lettuce…everything. I would just like to know a rough estimate of what they eat because right now I get nothing from them. I just coach them as best as possible. I try to tell them - if you are going to a party and you know you will want that piece of cake, that’s okay, go ahead and have it. But then have something really light for breakfast. Or dance at the party for a couple of hours.

  9. Prototype – What would you think of introducing to a population? Why? A: Diabetes B: Cancer C: Chronic Pain D: Heart Disease E: Obesity • Glucose watch • Motion detector • Electronic diary • Video cam

  10. You can develop it…but will they use it? Subjects falsified 79% of paper diary cards! …but e-diary has reminder system…

  11. Does compliance mean adoption?
