Designing a Technology Coach
Open accessAbstract
Technology in the home environment has the potential to support older adults in a variety of ways. We took an interdisciplinary approach (human factors/ergonomics and computer science) to develop a technology "coach" that could support older adults in learning to use a medical device. Our system provided a computer vision system to track the use of a blood glucose meter and provide users with feedback if they made an error. This research could support the development of an in-home personal assistant to coach individuals in a variety of tasks necessary for independent living.

The technology coach was successful in supporting immediate performance and learning, assessed via 2-day retention, with success indexed by participants' ability to correct errors after feedback from the coach.
“The technology coach was successful in supporting immediate performance and learning (assessed via 2 day retention); success was indexed by participants' ability to correct errors after feedback from the coach.”
From Toward a Psychological Science of Advanced Technology Design for Older Adults (2010) · cites this paper as Rogers, Essa, & Fisk, 2007
The specificity of feedback influenced the success of the coach-nonspecific information (an error has occurred) yielded worse performance than either specific procedure feedback (turn the test strip over) or specific conceptual feedback (the pink side must face up).
“the specifi city of feedback infl uenced the success of the coach -non specifi c information (an error has occurred) yielded worse performance than either specifi c procedure feedback (turn the test strip over) or even specifi c conceptual feedback (the pink side must face up).”

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.
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.
