Leveraging Curiosity to Care for An Aging Population

Presentation of a paper given at the Human Computer Interaction International (HCII) conference in Washington, DC on July 4, 2024.

The United States is experiencing a silver tsunami: an aging nation with baby boomers becoming the largest elderly population in the country's history. This demographic shift poses challenges for maintaining mobility and independence among older individuals. This paper will demonstrate an ongoing research project conducted for a major automotive maker that explores how an early research-and-development initiative might lengthen the driving years for older drivers.

    2024 · Washington, DC The Silver Tsunami Introduction This demographic shift poses challenges for maintaining mobility and independence among older individuals. How might we help seniors drivers maintain freedom of mobility 
 to support personal independence? Leveraging Curiosity to Care for An Aging Population · HCII 2024 · Washington, DC
  5. Leveraging Curiosity to Care for An Aging Population · HCII

    2024 · Washington, DC Project Background - Health Time Machine Introduction We worked with a major automotive maker on a project aimed at helping drivers to:
 • Evaluate driving ability as we age • Take proactive steps that improve health and can extend the driving years Leveraging Curiosity to Care for An Aging Population · HCII 2024 · Washington, DC
  6. Leveraging Curiosity to Care for An Aging Population · HCII

    2024 · Washington, DC Four-Phase Approach to Understanding Driving Research Phase 2 Quant. Research Understood consumer awareness about their current vehicle’s safety features. Phase 3 Prototype Explored how to translate a safety assessment into a digital experience. Phase 4 Evaluate + Refine Evaluated how to attract consumers and change minds and behaviors. Phase 1 Initial Research Outlined potential approaches to conduct driving assessments.
  7. Leveraging Curiosity to Care for An Aging Population · HCII

    2024 · Washington, DC Phase 1: Initial Research – Towards a Driving Assessment Research Examine how current technology systems might assess driving: What can be measured: sensory, experiential, and informational. Approach Background research into driving assessment. Outcomes • Foundational principles • Assessment framework • App architecture
  8. Leveraging Curiosity to Care for An Aging Population · HCII

    2024 · Washington, DC Phase 2: Quant research confirmed consumers want to learn more about their vehicle. Research Lack of Knowledge
 Two-thirds of participants were unaware of most safety features in their vehicles. n= 141. More than 90% of respondents were 55+. Desire to Learn
 Participants showed an interest in learning more about these safety features. Open to Recommendations
 Participants were open to receiving personalized, proactive recommendations from their vehicles. 56% were willing to take a confidential assessment in order to become a better driver. 91% were open to receiving personalized recommendations of vehicle safety features. 86% would like the vehicle to proactively inform them of safety features. Approach Understand what consumers know about vehicle’s current safety features. Outcomes • What consumers might expect in a safety checkup

    2024 · Washington, DC Phase 3: Design Approaches incorporated multiple frameworks. Research Behavior Model, BJ Fogg Hooked Model, Nir Eyal Flow, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi Inviting Curiosity Framework, Cassini Nazir Approach Translate a safety assessment into a digital experience. Outcomes • Low- and medium-fidelity prototypes
  10. Leveraging Curiosity to Care for An Aging Population · HCII

    2024 · Washington, DC Phase 3: Early prototypes connected consumer desire to meaningful action. Research Approach Translate a safety assessment into a digital experience. Outcomes • Low- and medium-fidelity prototypes Prototypes were featured three assessments: Wellness Assessment
 Quiz-type assessment that looks at drivers’ health and wellness Driving Assessment
 Simulate data being transmitted to/ from app/vehicle, and usage of drivers’ patterns over time. Brain Training
 Provide brain training games to help individuals maintain and improve their cognitive abilities.

    2024 · Washington, DC Phase 4: Evaluate and Refine Research and behaviors. This fourth and final phase of the project focused on gaining a deeper understanding of two key aspects related to a stand-alone kiosk: The intercepts told us 
 how health and driving checkups can change minds about driving safety. Approach How to attract consumers and change minds and behaviors. Outcomes • High-fidelity prototypes • Further testing and iteration
