Various types of users
– Overview –
Related to the research topic about health, this line of research has examined the use of technology to enhance the physical and/or mental well-being of different user groups. I have conducted studies on older adults, people with anxiety or depression, individuals with addictions to drugs, technology, purchases, or gambling, people with visual impairments, and men who have sex with men. The research draws upon positive psychology and human-centered computing to understand how technologies can support users’ well-being. By focusing on the specific needs of these user groups, I aim to design and evaluate technologies that can help individuals overcome health challenges and lead healthier lives.
