Framingham Heart Study1948-ongoing , 5,208 adult subjectsMuch of the now-common knowledge concerning heart disease, such as the effects of diet, exercise, and common medications such as aspirin, is based on this longitudinal study.

1000+ medical papersHigh Blood Pressure / Hypertension not healthyGenetic risk factors identifiedBehavioural risk factors (e.g., cigarette smoking) identifiedGender-specific risk factors identified

Stanford Marshmallow Experiment1972-2012 , 600-800 participants

China-Cornell-Oxford Nutrition StudyBusselton Health Study

Impulsive behaviour correlated with behavioural characteristicslater in life 1988 "preschool children who delayed gratification longer in the self-imposed delay paradigm, were described more than 10 years later by their parents as adolescents who were significantly more competent".prefrontal cortex / ventral striatum obesity, SAT scores, professional salaries, marital happiness ....

challenges for longitudinal use

no longitudinal study of effects of gameification + behavioural ints.

challenges

advantages

device tied to provider’s silo+app ; difficult to pull data out

no integration across devices;

logging is an investment good (Thaler & Susstein) - costs now, benefits later; sustaining logging is difficult

high-res, multi-dimensional temporal data

low-effort, “almost forgettable”

not clinically validated

disagreement among units ‘fuel’ ‘points’ ‘calories’

increases awareness of everyday activities

bridges estimation gap

Analysis of An Online Health Social Network, Ma et al (2010) ACM International Health Informatics

107,000 User Empirical Analysis

“If a user’s friend makes significant progress on weight loss, the probability of that user’s own weight-loss success is much greater than a user whose friends are not making progress.”

“A user’s weight loss may positively influence those separated as far as four-degree away in the social network.”

“This sharing of information creates a more informed and empowered patient and can lead to a

radical reconfiguring of the doctor/patient

relationship.”
