When Workout Buddies Are Virtual: AI Agents and Human Peers in a Longitudinal Physical Activity Study

Physical inactivity remains a critical global health issue, yet scalable strategies for sustained motivation are scarce. Conversational agents designed as simulated exercising peers (SEPs) represent a promising alternative, but their long-term impact is unclear. We report a six-month randomized controlled trial (N=280…

Disclosure-Based Cyberbullying Support App: Victims' Psychological Well-Being, Awareness, and Support Through Counseling

Cyberbullying has significant psychological implications, including increased levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. Despite these implications, there is a lack of real-time, accessible mechanisms that support victims, particularly young adults. This study developed and evaluated the effectiveness of a progressive…

RiskRAG: A Data-Driven Solution for Improved AI Model Risk Reporting

Risk reporting is essential for documenting AI models, yet only 14% of model cards mention risks, out of which 96% copy content from a small set of cards, leading to a lack of actionable insights. Existing proposals for improving model cards do not resolve these issues. To address this, we introduce RiskRAG, a Retriev…

Reimagining Wearable-Based Digital Contact Tracing: Insights from Kenya and Côte d’Ivoire

While digital contact tracing has been extensively studied in Western contexts, its relevance and application in Africa remain largely unexplored. This study focuses on Kenya and Côte d’Ivoire to uncover user perceptions and inform the design of culturally resonant contact tracing technologies. Utilizing a wearable pr…

CSCW '24Session 3e: Trusting the Machine: Fake News. AI Decision-Making, and Auditing

Comparing the Willingness to Share for Human-generated vs. AI-generated Fake News

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) presents large risks for society when it is used to create fake news. A crucial factor for fake news to go viral on social media is that users share such content. Here, we aim to shed light on the sharing behavior of users across human-generated vs. AI-generated fake news. Speci…

Digital, Analog, or Hybrid: Comparing Strategies to Support Self-Reflection

Recently, various digital solutions have emerged to enhance the process of self-reflection, which can be crucial for personal growth and resilience. However, whether technology can meaningfully match or augment a traditional approach like pen or paper remains to be ascertained. Our objective was to build an better und…

Participatory Design to Address Disclosure-Based Cyberbullying

Disclosure-based cyberbullying is defined as sharing personal in- formation without consent, often with malicious intentions. This affects young adults and leads to long-term personal damage (i.e., career, reputation, and family). Current strategies on social media platforms fall short of addressing this problem. We e…

Designing a Data-Driven Survey System: Leveraging Participants' Online Data to Personalize Surveys

User surveys are essential to user-centered research in many fields, including human-computer interaction (HCI). Survey personalization—specifically, adapting questionnaires to the respondents' profiles and experiences—can improve reliability and quality of responses. However, popular survey platforms lack usable mech…

Supporting Co-Regulation and Motivation In Learning Programming In Online Classrooms

Self-regulation of learning in programming has been extensively investigated, emphasising an individual's metacognitive and motivational regulation components. However, learning often happens in socially situated contexts, and little emphasis has been paid to studying social modes of regulation in programming. We desi…

On the Potential of Mediation Chatbots for Mitigating Online Multiparty Privacy Conflicts - A Wizard-of-Oz Study

Sharing multimedia content, without obtaining consent from the people involved causes multiparty privacy conflicts (MPCs). However, social-media platforms do not proactively protect users from the occurrence of MPCs. Hence, users resort to out-of-band, informal communication channels, attempting to mitigate such confl…
