Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
Self-knowledge is valuable.
4
Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
A way to get self-knowledge Collect information about yourself, e.g., oneʼs behaviors, habits, and thoughts.
Reflect on the information about yourself.

Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
Why a model of Personal Informatics? A growing field with many HCI challenges • Tools are used over a long period of time. • User is involved throughout the process.
No comprehensive list of problems
Developers need a guide for development and assessment of these tools

Survey What personal informatics tools they use
What problems they encountered
23
Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
Survey Questions • How difficult is it to collect this personal
information? • What was your initial motivation to reflect
on this collected personal information? • What patterns have you found?
Transcript of the survey is at: http://personalinformatics.org/lab/survey
24
Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
Participants Advertised the survey in blogs about personal informatics.
68 users of personal informatics tools
11 participated in follow-up interviews over instant messenger
25
Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
Types of Information Automatically collected • Financial institutions (banks, credit cards)
• Utility companies (electricity, heating)
• Computers (email and browsing history)
26
Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
Types of Information Manually collected • Fewer participants, but greater variety
Calendar events, status updates, work activities, blog posts, weight, exercise, browser bookmarks, time at work, mood, journal, sleeping habits, food consumption, productivity, health, medication intake, symptoms, miles ran, sports activities, blood pressure, blood sugar level, dream journal, step counts, relationship status, books read, transportation

1. Barriers Cascade P44 lacked time and motivation during Collection stage.
About Reflection stage, he said: “I wish I could report successes on this front, but my lack of regular collection has made this difficult.”
50
Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
1. Barriers Cascade Design Guideline Consider all the stages when designing PI systems.

2. Stages are iterative. P48 switched between Google spreadsheets, Daytum, and your.flowingdata to collect restaurants visited.
But the tools did not allow importing data.
55

4. Facets Peopleʼs lives are composed of many facets. • Home life vs. work life • Daily interactions with other people • Health • Finance
62
Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
4. Facets Users expressed desire to see associations between different facets of their lives. • “To understand trends in symptoms,
behaviors, and circumstances.” P26 • “If it were easily collected, information on
food intake, calories, fat, etc., would make an interesting starting point for analysis.” P49 who tracks medication intake
63
Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
4. Facets Most personal informatics are uni-faceted.
Some personal informatics systems have multi-faceted collection, but only support uni-faceted reflection.

69
Ian Li, Anind Dey, Jodi Forlizzi A Stage-Based Model of Personal Informatics CHI 2010
IMPACT Different from most personal informatics systems for physical activity:
• Collects physical activity information and context (e.g., type of activity, location, people)
• Visualizations to help users become awareof factors in their lives that affect their physical activity.
