“…Some go to lengths to conceal or disguise health objects from visitors to their homes. For example, patients use false cases or hide medications in discreet locations around the home [6,38]. Worries about judgment or social stigma can influence a patient's behaviors and attitudes towards revealing or concealing mobile medical devices worn for monitoring diabetes [35].…”

“…Previous work in personal health information management has studied the sharing preferences of patients and other stakeholders. Involvement in self-care often necessitates that patients manage and share personal health information with providers [45] and caregivers, who are typically family members [6,39]. Privacy is often the top concern among older patients considering the use of health information management technologies [12].…”

To improve care for the growing number of older adults with multiple chronic conditions, physicians and other healthcare providers need to better understand what is most important in the lives of these patients. In a qualitative study of home visits with patients and family caregivers, we found that patients withhold information from providers when communicating about what they deem important to their health and well-being. We examine the various motivations and factors that explain communication boundaries between patients and their healthcare providers. Patients' disclosures reflected perceptions of what was pertinent to share, assumptions about the consequences of sharing, and the influence of interpersonal relationships with providers. Our findings revealed limitations of existing approaches to support patient-provider communication and identified challenges for the design of systems that honor patient needs and preferences.

“…Most live stream platforms can automatically add live events to users' calendars, with an immediate link to access the live session at the scheduled time. Previous work has shown that calendars are useful not only for managing one's schedule and tasks, but also as a source of reflection on one's identity [55], intimate relationships [92], and health [8].…”

Mindfulness practice has many mental and physical well-being benefits. With the increased popularity of live stream technologies and the impact of COVID-19, many people have turned to live stream tools to participate in online meditation sessions. To better understand the practices, challenges, and opportunities in live-stream meditation, we conducted a three-month autoethnographic study, during which two researchers participated in live-stream meditation sessions as the audience. Then we conducted a follow-up semi-structured interview study with 10 experienced live meditation teachers who use different live-stream tools. We found that live meditation, although having a weaker social presence than in-person meditation, facilitates attendees in establishing a practice routine and connecting with other meditators. Teachers use live streams to deliver the meditation practice to the world which also enhances their practice and brand building. We identified the challenges of using live-stream tools for meditation from the perspectives of both audiences and teachers, and provided design recommendations to better utilize live meditation as a resource for mental wellbeing.

“…With a view to better understanding how CAs and householders could, in the future, share domestic work, we draw on Reddy et al's temporal organisation of work to understand how people currently orientate themselves and manage domestic work within the home. The temporality of the home has been previously studied, with calendrical systems being a favoured entry point for both HCI and CSCW researchers [42][43][44][45]. Studies in the home have also reviewed domestic technology, with Irani et al [4] discussing the temporal ordering and management of television viewing.…”

This paper extends current research on Human–Robot Interaction (HRI) within Human–Computer Interaction (HCI), focusing on how future virtual agents and communication robots can support the temporal structures and routines within the home. We recruited representatives from 15 households with varied compositions, ranging from single inhabitants to full nest families. Drawing upon P.G. Wodehouse’s The Inimitable Jeeves as an inspiration, the methodology sought to imitate the relationship between a recruitment agency worker (researcher) and an employer (participant) seeking to hire a personal assistant (e.g., a virtual agent or communication robot device) for their home. A ‘household audit’ comprising a guided household tour and an architectural survey was conducted to ascertain the nuanced spatiotemporal routines within the home. The study analysed the responses of participants using the Labovian narrative schema, a traditional method in linguistics research. The findings were then examined through the lens of Reddy et al.’s temporal features of work to understand how domestic work unfolds within the home from a temporal perspective. We argue that the temporal concepts discussed by Reddy et al. provided valuable insights into the temporal dynamics of everyday activities and could inform the design of virtual agents and communication robotic devices to fulfil their roles as domesticated ‘personal assistants’.
