Self-Tracking for Health and the Quantified Self: Re-Articulating Autonomy, Solidarity, and Authenticity in an Age of Personalized Healthcare
Open accessAbstract
Self-tracking devices point to a future in which individuals will be more involved in the management of their health and will generate data that will benefit clinical decision making and research. They have thus attracted enthusiasm from medical and public health professionals as key players in the move toward participatory and personalized healthcare. Critics, however, have begun to articulate a number of broader societal and ethical concerns regarding self-tracking, foregrounding their disciplining, and disempowering effects. This paper has two aims: first, to analyze some of the key promises and concerns that inform this polarized debate. I argue that far from being solely about health outcomes, this debate is very much about fundamental values that are at stake in the move toward personalized healthcare, namely, the values of autonomy, solidarity, and authenticity. The second aim is to provide a framework within which an alternative approach to self-tracking for health can be developed. I suggest that a practice-based approach, which studies how values are enacted in specific practices, can open the way for a new set of theoretical questions. In the last part of the paper, I sketch out how this can work by describing various enactments of autonomy, solidarity, and authenticity among self-trackers in the Quantified Self community. These examples show that shifting attention to practices can render visible alternative and sometimes unexpected enactments of values. Insofar as these may challenge both the promises and concerns in the debate on self-tracking for health, they can lay the groundwork for new conceptual interventions in future research.

Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
The paper analyzes the polarized debate over self-tracking for health and personalized healthcare, arguing that it is fundamentally about the values of autonomy, solidarity, and authenticity. It proposes a practice-based approach and uses examples from the Quantified Self community to show alternative, sometimes unexpected, enactments of those values.
Key findings
- The debate is structured by three polarizations: empowerment vs. surveillance and discipline; improved overall health vs. the disintegration of state and collective responsibility for health; and greater self-knowledge vs. reductionism and the non-impartiality of numbers.
- Both advocates and critics appeal to the same values—autonomy, solidarity, and authenticity—so reframing the debate around values clarifies the stakes and ties it to broader socio-political transformations.
- A practice-based approach shows Quantified Self self-trackers enact autonomy through n = 1 self-experiments, custom categories, and resistance to being tracked by others; solidarity through sharing data, communal/confessional meetings, and group studies or public data contributions; and authenticity through data as a supplement to storytelling and a “qualified self,” rather than pure data fetishism.
- The paper reports contextual numbers: a 2013 Pew study found 1 in 5 Americans use technology to track their health; almost 2 billion people worldwide were estimated to use digital devices to track health by 2017; some 97,000 mobile health apps existed; 485 million wearable devices were expected to be released annually by 2018; and the Quantified Self community had over 60,000 members in over 200 groups with two international conferences a year.
Methods
- Design: conceptual and philosophical analysis of the promises and concerns surrounding self-tracking for health and personalized healthcare, followed by a proposed practice-based framework.
- Data or sample: observations and interviews carried out within the Quantified Self community at various meetings and international conferences between 2013 and 2015, including QSEU14 and QSEU15.
- Main analysis: identifies three key polarizations, reframes them in terms of autonomy, solidarity, and authenticity, and uses ethnographic examples to describe how those values are enacted in specific self-tracking practices.
Limitations
- The paper states that the debate remains highly speculative, tends to configure users unrealistically—either as rational consumers making autonomous health choices or as victims oblivious to insidious forces—and is detached from the everyday experiences of people actually using self-tracking devices.
- The paper states that its examples are drawn from the Quantified Self, a very specific group of “early adopters,” which limits broader conclusions; it calls for other empirical sites such as chronic patients, people who stop using self-tracking devices, non-users, and older people.
- Evident from the text: the empirical basis is illustrative rather than systematically described; no sample size, recruitment strategy, or coding/analysis procedure for the observations and interviews is reported, and the paper does not resolve which enactments of values should be normatively preferred, leaving that to future research.

“Indeed, selftracking experiments typically focus on aspects of individuals' lives that are disturbing, painful, or embarrassing: struggles with weight loss, mental health and disease, bad habits, or undesirable character traits-sensitive issues that are not easily revealed in most contexts and that are given a voice via the abstract language of numbers.”

In the paper
“While this emphasis on individual health and well-being does reproduce the disciplinary dimension of the discourse of healthism, as critics in the self-tracking and PHC debate point out, it simultaneously disputes the content of that discourse by subjecting it to (at least somewhat) scientific scrutiny and thus challenges authoritative health claims.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-07, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-07 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
