  • 23 Health Vlogs As Social Support for Chronic Illness Management
    Health Vlogs as Social Support for Chronic Illness Management JINA HUH, Michigan State University LESLIE S. LIU and TINA NEOGI, University of Washington KORI INKPEN, Microsoft Research WANDA PRATT, University of Washington Studies have shown positive impact of video blogs (vlogs) on patient education. However, we know little on how patient-initiated vlogs shape the relationships among vloggers and viewers. We qualitatively analyzed 23 72 vlogs on YouTube by users diagnosed with HIV, diabetes, or cancer and 1,274 comments posted to the vlogs to understand viewers’ perspectives on the vlogs. We found that the unique video medium allowed intense and enriched personal and contextual disclosure to the viewers, leading to strong community-building activities and social support among vloggers and commenters, both informationally and emotionally. Furthermore, the unique communication structure of the vlogs allowed ad hoc small groups to form, which showed different group behavior than typical text-based social media, such as online communities. We provide implications to the Health Care Industry (HCI) community on how future technologies for health vlogs could be designed to further support chronic illness management.

Imposing sex segregation on sports is problematic for many reasons. Sex segregation reflects and reinforces a binary view of both sex and gender unsupported by science. It communicates that women are physically unable to compete against men, even though research indicates considerable variation among individual athletes and different sports, and further reveals that attributes other than sex are often more important determinants of athletic ability. It reinforces unfounded gender stereotypes that harm both women and men. And sex segregation uncritically prioritizes athletic activities involving strengths typically associated with male bodies, without requiring us to ask why we view these strengths as the most important in the first place.

    SEVENTH FRAMEWORK PROGRAMME FP7-ICT-2009-6 BlogForever Grant agreement no.: 269963 BlogForever: D3.1 Preservation Strategy Report Editor: Yunhyong Kim, Seamus Ross Revision: First Version Dissemination Level: Public Author(s): Yunhyong Kim, Seamus Ross, Karen Stepanyan, Ed Pinsent, Patricia Sleeman, Silvia Arango-Docio, Vangelis Banos, Ilias Trochidis, Jaime Garcia Llopis, Hendrik Kalb Due date of deliverable: 30 September 2012 Actual submission date: 30 September 2012 Start date of project: 01 March 2011 Duration: 30 months Lead Beneficiary name: University of Glasgow (UG) Abstract: This report describes preservation planning approaches and strategies recommended by the BlogForever project as a core component of a weblog repository design. More specifically, we start by discussing why we would want to preserve weblogs in the first place and what it is exactly that we are trying to preserve. We further present a review of past and present work and highlight why current practices in web archiving do not address the needs of weblog preservation adequately. We make three distinctive contributions in this volume: a) we propose transferable practical workflows for applying a combination of established metadata and repository standards in developing a weblog repository, b) we provide an automated approach to identifying significant properties of weblog content that uses the notion of communities and how this affects previous strategies, c) we propose a sustainability plan that draws upon community knowledge through innovative repository design.
