*Introduction
*Technology-Enabled Feedback* - Displaying timely, relevant feedback giving contextual
information for current task, activity or monitoring
*Social Norms * - Utilising peer-pressure, influence and social competiveness
to bring about behaviour change
*By combining the above we can target individual behaviours to change from physical fitness to sustainable practices, using online social networks (OSN’s)

*IntroductionThe idea that people can be ‘nudged’ and influenced to make better health and lifestyle choices has recently been popularised by the likes of Thaler & Sunstein, Shirky, and Fogg.

*Case Studies – Energy Usage
*Two unique domestic energy studies delivering socially-mediated live energy feedback inside a Facebook application

*Case Studies – Why Energy?
*UK domestic energy accounts for approx 30% of total energy expenditure in 2008
*30% Increase since the 1970’s
*19% Increase since 1990
*Only 1.9% of domestic energy consumed is from renewable resources
*UK goal of 34% carbon reduction by 2020
*Peak Oil
*Soaring Costs
*Climate change
*Sources: DECC Statistics 2008, IPCC 2007

*Energy
•Intangible
•Invisible
•Colourless
•Odourless
•Negative effects are temporal

*Case Study – Wattsup
• Basic presentation of energy data
• Limited interaction
• Closed systems with no social data sharing
• Limited online applications
• Bound to proprietary software
![Page 10: Social Media and Behaviour Change Domestic Energy and other Case Studies](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051323/5469931daf7959842c8b5155/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
*Case Study – Wattsup
*Recruited 8 households
*18 day ‘within subjects’ study to measure energy usage in two conditions
*Social condition: participants could view their own and comment upon others’ energy usage
*Non social condition: participants could view only their own energy usage
*Research question:
*Can the use of social media motivate reductions in energy usage?

*Case Study – Wattsup
*Results
*7 out of 8 households reduced their energy consumption when in the social condition
*130KwH of energy saved – equivalent to Co2 emissions of driving a small car for 399 Km
*If sustained for 6 months would result in reductions of 2600KwH

*Case Study – Wattsup
*Utility company Opower commercialising ‘social energy’
http://social.opower.com/
“OPOWER, a company that uses game mechanics to encourage people to use less energy in their homes, is working with Facebook and the Natural Resources Defense Council to create an app that will let people share data about how much -- or little -- electricity they're using at home”
![Page 17: Social Media and Behaviour Change Domestic Energy and other Case Studies](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051323/5469931daf7959842c8b5155/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
*Case Study – Power Ballads
*Existing persuasive technologies aim to motivate behaviour change primarily through presenting positive feedback when the desired behaviour is observed.
*Literature in the field specifically recommends that we only reward good behaviour via positive feedback and that users disengage when aversive feedback is presented.
*8 Households recruited for 4 week study
*Research Question:
*Could aversive feedback linked to home energy monitor data and online social media successfully engage users?
![Page 18: Social Media and Behaviour Change Domestic Energy and other Case Studies](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051323/5469931daf7959842c8b5155/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
*Case Study – Power Ballads
*Aversive feedback is used to playfully punish a user if they are consuming more energy over the last 24 hours to the previous 24 hours.
*A Facebook newsfeed post is published to the users wall where it is viewable by their friends.
*The aversive content contains a message that the user is consuming more energy and listening to undesirable music. This can embarrass or shame a user in a playful manner.

*Case Study – Power Ballads
*Results
*Findings indicate aversive stimuli may be useful in delivering engaging energy feedback.
*50 aversive newsfeed posts published.
*57 user-generated comments posted.
*30% of all visits to the application resulted in a punishment with the remaining 70% of visits bringing about an energy saving notification.

*Case Studies – Fitness
![Page 23: Social Media and Behaviour Change Domestic Energy and other Case Studies](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051323/5469931daf7959842c8b5155/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
*Case Studies – Why Fitness?
*Modern lifestyles are becoming increasingly sedentary - only 11.6% of UK adults are classed as physically active.
*Physical exercise has been shown to improve health conditions such as heart disease and depression.
*Figures suggest that UK workers spend up to 60% of their waking hours at work.
*There is scope to utilise some of this non-social time to encourage more physical activity.

*Case Study - Stepmatron
*Recruited 10 registered nurses from same ward
*21 day ‘within subjects’ study to measure physical activity in two conditions
*Given pedometer to record step activity during work hours
*Social condition: participants could view their own and comment upon others’ physical activity
*Non social condition: participants could view only their own physical activity
*Research question:
*Can the use of social media motivate an increase in physical activity?

*Case Study - Stepmatron
*9/10 participants walked more steps in the social condition than in the non-social condition, with mean step ratings of 42004.4 and 38132.1 for social and non-social conditions respectively.
*Wilcoxon test significance (Z= -2.5, N=10, p=0.013).

*Case Studies - Summary
*Using Social Media:
*WATTSUP - successfully reduced domestic energy usage
*POWER BALLADS - suggested aversive feedback does not necessarily lead to disengagement with energy feedback
*STEPMATRON - successfully increased physical activity
*More longitudinal studies required!

Thank you!

*Design Task!
*A brainstorming session where you – as groups – will devise (on paper) some energy visualisation designs for a given theme and target user group.
*The designs should work towards making energy consumption easier to understand with a view for reductions.
*You will work in groups of 5 or 6. Each group will be assigned a number and receive a random user group.
*You then have 20 minutes to devise your visualisation (make sure it has a name!) and to devise your elevator pitch for the prize(s).
*We will then sit through your 1 minute elevator pitches.
*We will then ALL vote for the winner.
