“…While there are many sociotechnnical interventions for managing dietary behaviors [35,41], there are few that account for the lower health literacy levels and socio-cultural needs of low SES populations [13]. Research interventions for low SES populations range from interactive multimedia nutrition education programs [34] to shared experiences facilitated by mobile technology [17,33] to mobile chronic condition management [13]. These successful interventions motivated us to Permission to make digital or hard copies of all or part of this work for personal or classroom use is granted without fee provided that copies are not made or distributed for profit or commercial advantage and that copies bear this notice and the full citation on the first page.…”

We conducted a 12-week comparative field trial with 20 low socioeconomic status (SES) caregivers from 10 families to explore their use of a sociotechnical mobile application designed to promote healthy snacking, Snack Buddy. Our analysis of the semi-structured interviews, pre/post-intervention instruments, and photo-elicitation interviews suggests that participants gained a greater awareness of their own snacking practices and those of their family members. Users were empowered to adjust their own practices and beliefs around healthy eating because they were more aware of their family's snacking behaviors. We describe the unique social dynamics of how families engaged with each other and the application, which includes positive social support for healthy eating. By providing insights into family interactions and experiences with the application, we identify benefits, challenges, and strategies when designing family-level sociotechnical interventions for healthy behavior.

Objective: to identify, in the Brazilian and international publications indexed in the databases, the main methods adopted by researchers for developing mobile apps in health.Method: integrative review of the literature, of studies published in the following databases: MEDLINE/PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, CINAHL and SciELO, in 2012 -2016. A total of 21 articles were selected for analysis.Results: the main methods for developing mobile apps in the area of health, described in the articles, were: systematic design of instruction, contextualized design of instruction, user-centered design and systems development life cycle. Conclusion:regardless of the method of development selected, the stages must be well-defined and structured, so that the mobile app developed may be useful to the end-user. Resultados: los principales métodos para el desarrollo de aplicaciones móviles en el área de la salud descritos en los artículos fueron: diseño instructivo sistemático, diseño educativo contextual, diseño centrado en el usuario y ciclo de vida de desarrollo de sistemas. DESCRIPTORS:Conclusión: independientemente del método de desarrollo elegido, las etapas deben estar bien definidas y estructuradas, a fin de que la aplicación móvil desarrollada sea útil para el usuario final. DESCRIPTORES:Aplicaciones móviles, aplicación de informática médica, informática en enfermería, informática médica, tecnología de la información.

Background: There are many approaches to evaluating aging-in-place technologies. While there are standard measures for outcomes such as health and caregiver burden, which lend themselves to statistical analysis, researchers have a harder time identifying why a particular information and communication technology (ICT) intervention worked (or not). Objective: The purpose of this paper is to review a variety of methods that can help answer these deeper questions of when people will utilize an ICT for aging in place, how they use it, and most importantly why. This review is sensitive to the special context of aging in place, which necessitates an evaluation that can explore the nuances of the experiences of older adults and their caregivers with the technology in order to fully understand the potential impact of ICTs to support aging in place. Methods: The authors searched both health (PubMed) and technology (ACM Digital Library) venues, reviewing 115 relevant papers that had an emphasis on understanding the use of aging-in-place technologies. This mini-review highlights a number of popular methods used in both the health and technology fields, including qualitative methods (e.g. interviews, focus groups, contextual observations, diaries, and cultural probes) and quantitative methods (e.g. surveys, the experience sampling method, and technology logs). Results: This review highlights that a single evaluation method often is not adequate for understanding why people adopt ICTs for aging in place. The review ends with two examples of multifaceted evaluations attempting to get at these deeper issues. Conclusion: There is no proscriptive formula for evaluating the intricate nuances of technology acceptance and use in the aging-in-place context. Researchers should carefully examine a wide range of evaluation techniques to select those that will provide the richest insights for their particular project.
