| 2025 | Supporting Contraceptive Decision-Making in the Intermediated Pharmacy Setting in KenyaabstractAdolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in sub-Saharan Africa face unique barriers to contraceptive access and lack AGYW-centered contraceptive decision-support resources. To empower AGYW to make informed choices and improve reproductive health outcomes, we developed a tablet-based application to provide contraceptive education and decision-making support in the pharmacy setting - a key source of contraceptive services for AGYW - in Kenya. We conducted workshops with AGYW and pharmacy providers in Kenya to gather app feedback and understand how to integrate the intervention into the pharmacy setting. Our analysis highlights how intermediated interactions - a multiuser, cooperative effort to enable technology use and information access - could inform a successful contraceptive intervention in Kenya. The potential strengths of intermediation in our setting inform implications for technological health interventions in intermediated scenarios in \lrem{LMICs}\ladd{low- and middle-income countries}, including challenges and opportunities for extending impact to different populations and integrating technology into resource-constrained healthcare settings.

| 2024 | HIV Client Perspectives on Digital Health in MalawiabstracteHealth has strong potential to advance HIV care in low- and middle-income countries. Given the sensitivity of HIV-related information and the risks associated with unintended HIV status disclosure, clients’ privacy perceptions towards eHealth applications should be examined to develop client-centered technologies. Through focus group discussions with antiretroviral therapy (ART) clients from Lighthouse Trust, Malawi’s public HIV care program, we explored perceptions of data security and privacy, including their understanding of data flow and their concerns about data confidentiality across several layers of data use. Our findings highlight the broad privacy concerns that affect ART clients’ day-to-day choices, clients’ trust in Malawi’s health system, and their acceptance of, and familiarity with, point-of-care technologies used in HIV care. Based on our findings, we provide recommendations for building robust digital health systems in low- and middle-income countries with limited resources, nascent privacy regulations, and political will to take action to protect client data.

| 2024 | Menopause Legacies: Designing to Record and Share Experiences of Menopause Across GenerationsabstractMenopause is often overlooked or medicalized, consequently devaluing individual experiences and failing to support individuals experiencing this life event. Family dynamics, death, and taboo further mean that individuals often miss out on information that could help them contextualize their experiences. We examine participant experiences with menopause and explore designs of digital and non-digital legacies for sharing menopause experiences across generations. We conducted semi-structured interviews and design sessions with 17 participants who experienced or are experiencing menopause. We report participant information needs and sense-making practices, including what personalized information participants wish to pass down and preferred formats for intergenerational sharing. Findings highlight the potential of using storytelling and life-logging to create "holistic" memories of the menopause journey, to support self-reflection, and for using legacies to initiate conversations about marginalized health experiences. We identify future design and research opportunities for the HCI and CSCW communities to support intergenerational sharing of non-medicalized and stigmatized health experiences.

| 2024 | eHealth Data Security and Privacy: Perspectives from Diverse Stakeholders in MalawiabstractThe development and adoption of eHealth in low- and middle-income countries has potential to advance the quality of care in healthcare settings that are challenged by weak infrastructure. Especially in the countries where HIV rates are high, there is need to implement electronic medical record systems to enhance care and improve treatment outcomes. Due to the sensitivity of HIV-related information, eHealth applications in HIV care necessitate the attention and prioritization of data security and privacy. We explored diverse stakeholders' views on data security and privacy in Malawi's public HIV care program to expand the understanding of gaps and opportunities in improving data protections. This work connects data security and privacy goals and practices with previous work on mobile device usage as well as global best practices for security and privacy in healthcare settings. A key finding articulated by stakeholders is the importance of establishing strong data security governance. Lisa Orii, Caryl Feldacker, Hannock Tweya, Richard J. Anderson 0001 |

| 2022 | Designing for Speech Practice Systems: How Do User-Controlled Voice Manipulation and Model Speakers Impact Self-Perceptions of Voice?abstractCan you speak the way you desire without feeling the pressure to conform to standards of speaking? In this study, we investigated the impact of user-controlled voice manipulation and listening to recordings of model speakers on self-perceptions of voice and speech. Quantitative analysis showed that there was a significant improvement in the perceived confidence of tone by listening to model speakers, but there were no significant improvements due to voice manipulation. Qualitative analysis of interviews revealed that participants responded positively to the visual and auditory feedback provided by the voice manipulation software. The participants also evaluated the quality of model speakers to decide whether or not they wanted to refer to them for speech practice. Based on the results of these analyses, we summarized the design implications for a speech practice system that would allow further investigation of the impact of the system on self-perceptions of speech performance.

| 2021 | Perceptions of Trucking Automation: Insights from the r/Truckers CommunityabstractRecent technological advancements in automation have sparked interest in how automation will affect truck drivers and the trucking industry. However, there is a gap in the literature addressing how truck drivers perceive automation and how they believe it will impact trucking. This study aims to understand truck drivers’ perspectives on automation in the trucking industry. Extending a preliminary study, we conducted a broader analysis of comments discussing automation in the r/Truckers subreddit from February 2017 to March 2021. In general, the community had negative sentiments towards automation in the trucking industry. Participants speculated when automation would become mainstream in trucking and discussed the feasibility of automation in the context of executing non-driving tasks and having accommodating infrastructure. Our findings indicate that truck drivers seek to participate in conversations about the future and to prepare themselves for when automation is more prominent in the trucking industry.

| 2020 | Hooks in the Headline: Learning to Generate Headlines with Controlled StylesabstractCurrent summarization systems only produce plain, factual headlines, but do not meet the practical needs of creating memorable titles to increase exposure.We propose a new task, Stylistic Headline Generation (SHG), to enrich the headlines with three style options (humor, romance and clickbait), in order to attract more readers.With no style-specific article-headline pair (only a standard headline summarization dataset and mono-style corpora), our method TitleStylist generates style-specific headlines by combining the summarization and reconstruction tasks into a multitasking framework.We also introduced a novel parameter sharing scheme to further disentangle the style from the text.Through both automatic and human evaluation, we demonstrate that TitleStylist can generate relevant, fluent headlines with three target styles: humor, romance, and clickbait.The attraction score of our model generated headlines surpasses that of the state-ofthe-art summarization model by 9.68%, and even outperforms human-written references. 1 Di Jin 0005, Zhijing Jin 0001, Joey Tianyi Zhou, Lisa Orii, Peter Szolovits |
