Representation of self - reported information usage during mobile field studies : Pilots & Orienteers 2
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents two representations of data arising out of an exploratory diary study of mobile behaviour. They were developed as user centred tools for analysing and communicating situated, self-reported data and understanding environmentally immersed actions of mobile users. The Information Flow Chart (IFC) focuses on use of environmental information and decision making. The Contextual Information Map (CIM) depicts spatial activity data. The representations were used to help understand navigation behaviour during the study. Based on this experience, we believe they can assist efficient analysis and presentation of contextual information and develop into useful tools for developers of mobile technologies.

متن کاملLongitudinal study of Lyme borreliosis in a high risk population in Switzerland.
Orienteers from all parts of Switzerland (n = 416) were included in a longitudinal study for Lyme borreliosis. In spring 1986, the seroprevalence was 28.1%. At the beginning of the study, 84.3% of orienteers reported a history of tick bite, and 3.8% reported a past history of Lyme borreliosis. During the first (spring 1986-autumn 1986), second (autumn 1986-spring 1987) and third (spring 1987-au...
متن کاملThe Ability of GSM Mobile Phone Users in Detecting Exposure to Electromagnetic Fields and the Bioeffects of These Fields on their Vital Signs
Background & Aims: Since previous studies on complications resulting from exposure to electromagnetic fields emitted by mobile phones are based only on self- reported symptoms, this study was performed to find the capability of users in recognition of real/ sham microwave exposure and probable alterations of vital signs after microwave exposure. Methods: In a two- step screening, from 700 stude...
متن کاملEvaluating the Regularity of Human Behavior from Mobile Phone Usage Logs
This paper investigated the relationship between incrementally logged phone logs and self-reported survey data to derive regularity and predictability from mobile phone usage logs. First, we extracted information not from a single value such as location or call logs, but from multivariate contextual logs. Then we considered the changing pattern of the incrementally logged information over time....
متن کاملThe Pattern of Mobile Phone Use and Prevalence of Self-Reported Symptoms in Elementary and Junior High School Students in Shiraz, Iran
Background: The use of mobile phone by children is increasing drastically. Children are likely to accumulate many years of exposure during their lives. Furthermore, as nervous systems in children are developing, children may be at a greater risk compared to adults. In this light, some scientists have suggested that the use of mobile phones should be restricted in high-risk groups such as childr...
