Understanding cross-cultural adoption of a first aid app

et al. 2017

The increased availability of Wi-Fi and Internet coverage, coupled with the widespread use of Smartphones and tablet computers has facilitated the quick and efficient transfer of information through digital media, as well as the structured organisation of information into third-party apps. This paper focuses specifically on the use of a First Aid App in emergency situations, including large-scale critical events. We provide a comparative analysis of user engagement with a first aid app across nine culturally diverse countries. Due to the reported lack of reliable information provided by first aid and emergency apps generally, we analyse how organisational reputation affects user engagement with the app and provide a comparative analysis of user engagement during crises across countries with varying levels of risk. We determine that the key motivations influencing app uptake are largely dependent on users' risk awareness and the local reputation of the app provider. We illustrate how such apps may contribute valuable insights into user behaviour during critical events across varying contexts of risk that can help fine tune user requirements for health and emergency apps across different risk contexts

Physical activity is important for people's health, but it can be challenging especially for people who are vulnerable because of mental disorders. This paper contributes to participatory approaches developed to include vulnerable people in the design of exercise technology and situates participatory design to an exercise location and exercise activities. The results expand the current design space of exercise technology, which is dominated by sports enthusiasts and persuasive strategies. Visions for digital support that mediates local social exercise horizons are presented as a design alternative. The results exemplify that a participatory approach, which includes marginalized people in the design of technology, offers new knowledge for making existing and future applications useful to a broader audience. Specifically, the results point to opportunities for opening up the design space of healthpromoting technology to support the cooperation of available health resources among residents in a community with attention to people who are in a vulnerable situation.
