“…Mindfulness can be defined [181] as acceptance of the moment through non-judgment. In this category, five papers are novel designs [14,133,146,154,168], two are studies of previously developed applications [137,153] and two present studies for understanding how to better design mindfulness in general, outside of therapeutic settings [80,181].…”

“…Here, mindfulness appears within a context of issues such as acceptance and distress tolerance, through teaching the person to accept the things they cannot change. Seo et al [146] developed a system aimed at promoting calmness and a feeling of being at ease through touching and interacting with plants. It was tested in children with autism and older adults living in a senior home.…”

“…There is a type of non-data driven work which focuses on actuation aimed at altering somatic perception of users through tangible interfaces. This work may involve touch therapy [146], promoting empathy [174] or simply artifacts for helping sufferers cope in the real world [154,167]. In contrast with data-driven systems, this work aims at providing new types of technology-assisted coping mechanisms outside of virtual or online environments.…”

In the last decade, the number of articles on HCI and health has increased dramatically. We extracted 139 papers on depression, anxiety and bipolar health issues from 10 years of SIGCHI conference proceedings. 72 of these were published in the last two years. A systematic analysis of this growing body of literature revealed that most innovation happens in automated diagnosis, and self-tracking, although there are innovative ideas in tangible interfaces. We noted an overemphasis on data production without consideration of how it leads to fruitful interventions. Moreover, we see a need to promote ethical practices for involvement of people living with affective disorders. Finally, although only 16 studies evaluate technologies in a clinical context, several forms of support and intervention illustrate how rich insights are gained from evaluations with real patients. Our findings highlight potential for growth in the design space of affective health technologies.

“…33 substudies were conducted in a place where the autistic users were not initially familiar with (e.g. research lab [50], gallery [48]). 30 of them didn't mention whether the autistic users were familiarized with the environment (or the people included in the setting) or not.…”

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by various sensory perceptual and cognitive issues that lead to far-reaching challenges in autistics' social and daily lives. Research in HCI is inclined to take an important role in providing support to autistic individuals. However, due to the sensitivity of this user population and the HCI research community's lack of experience in working with neurodiverse users, researchers struggle while conducting and reporting on user studies with autistics. Aiming at analyzing autistics' involvement in design processes and the struggles encountered, here we present a critical review of user experience studies with autistic users conducted between 2010 and 2016. Using qualitative and quantitative approaches together, we revealed common practices and major problems. We provide a twofold contribution to the HCI field: A guideline for conducting studies with users with autism as well as suggestions on how to report these studies.

“…Another artwork that was evaluated with both autistic children and seniors in an assisted living facility includes Flora Touch by Seo et al, that used interactive grass and plants as a way to generate light or sound through touch (Seo et al 2015). It was found that seniors were less hesitant to engage than the children, and they stayed with the objects longer, and began discussing their gardening memories with other residents.…”

This paper presents a series of interactive tangible musical quilts. These quilts were designed as part of a graduate research course, in collaboration with a local senior assisted living centre, to create a work that would better support memory-care residents and their families. Each quilt includes a variety of soft buttons that trigger age-appropriate music when pressed. While the full project will result in 5 wall-hanging quilts and include a qualitative study with the residents, the current state of this work includes one finished quilt. This project took place when the COVID-19 pandemic began and spans in-person, phone, and email interactions with our collaborators. One finding through our literature review that was emphatically confirmed by the residence director, was the importance of context and social connection in a project. The contribution of this work is the exploration of how to create context that supports a social connection between memory care residents and their families to support positive morale, as well as how the design process was able to function in a hybrid manner.Soft circuits. Musical memory. Elderly design.
