Understanding Interaction with ML through a Thematic Analysis Coding Assistant

Interactive Machine Learning (ML) enables users, including non-experts in ML, to iteratively train and improve ML models. However, limited research has been reported on how non-experts interact with these systems. Focusing on thematic analysis as a practical application, we report on a user study where 20 participants…

Linguistic Diversity and Mental Well-Being: Co-Designing Custom AI Chatbots with Multilingual Mothers

Language plays a crucial role in mental health, from expressing emotions to challenging mental health stigma. While large language models provide significant potential to help address the global mental health crises, it remains unclear how conversational AI chatbots could support linguistic diversity. We investigate t…

Exploring Positionality in HCI: Perspectives, Trends, and Challenges

Positionality acknowledges that researchers’ subjectivities, values and experiences influence approaches to and outcomes of research. It underlines and promotes self-awareness and explicit demonstration of reflexivity. To understand how positionality is conceptualised and used in HCI, we conducted two studies: (i) a s…

Exploring the Design Space of Input Modalities for Working in Mixed Reality on Long-haul Flights

Flexible working, including in resource-constrained settings such as long-haul flights, poses considerable challenges. While research in mixed reality (MR) offers the potential for enhancing experiences of working on airplanes (WoA), what input modalities and interactions might be suitable for such workspaces is under…

Explanation before Adoption: Supporting Informed Consent for Complex Machine Learning and IoT Health Platforms

Explaining health technology platforms to non-technical members of the public is an important part of the process of informed consent. Complex technology platforms that deal with safety-critical areas are particularly challenging, often operating within private domains (e.g. health services within the home) and used b…

The Shifting Sands of Labour: Changes in Shared Care Work with a Smart Home Health System

Whilst the use of smart home systems has shown promise in recent years supporting older people's activities at home, there is more evidence needed to understand how these systems impact the type and the amount of shared care in the home. It is important to understand care recipients and caregivers' labour is changed w…

Social Virtual Reality as a Mental Health Tool: How People Use VRChat to Support Social Connectedness and Wellbeing

Social virtual reality (VR) platforms have increased in popularity with many people turning to these platforms to experience social connection, including a rapid influx of users during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, there is limited understanding of how people appropriate and use emerging social VR applications to ac…

Computational Notebooks as Co-Design Tools: Engaging Young Adults Living with Diabetes, Family Carers, and Clinicians with Machine Learning Models

Engaging end user groups with machine learning (ML) models can help align the design of predictive systems with people’s needs and expectations. We present a co-design study investigating the benefits and challenges of using computational notebooks to inform ML models with end user groups. We used a computational note…

Digital Mental Health and Social Connectedness: Experiences of Women from Refugee Backgrounds

A detailed understanding of the mental health needs of people from refugee backgrounds is important for the design of inclusive mental health technologies and services. We present a qualitative account of the digital mental health experiences of women from refugee backgrounds. Working with community members and commun…

Aging in Place Together: The Journey Towards Adoption and Acceptance of Stairlifts in Multi-Resident Homes

Stairlifts are a widely-used technology in the home that help people with mobility issues to go up and down stairs. However, it is unclear how stairlifts are experienced by all household members and what this understanding implies for home healthcare technologies. We investigated the impact of stairlift installations…
