Providing Adaptive Health Updates Across the Personal Social Network (2014, background): “The insights acquired in our research can be generalized to assist in overcoming existing challenges in SNS design, such as the tension between the need to maintain a positive image online and the desire for support in adversity (Newman et al., 2011).”

A lived informatics model of personal informatics (2015, background): “Adding features that let people share progress may create channels for accountability [27,28], but merely having a record in the tool or online can also help motivate people and make them feel accountable to the tool [26].”
Persuasive technology in the real world: a study of long-term use of activity sensing devices for fitness (2014, background): “al note between sharing health and behavior goals with others in online forums and the need to maintain a positive impression of one’s self to the social community [17].”
