AI-driven lifestyle monitoring systems collect data from ambient, motion, contact, light, and physiological sensors placed in the home, enabling AI algorithms to identify daily routines and detect deviations to support older adults "aging in place." Despite its potential to support several challenges …

Nurses today experience an increasingly heavy workload and overload of daily tasks that force them to prioritize their care activities. Missed nursing care, which refers to nurses not being able to complete all necessary care, may lead to a serious threat to patient safety in hospitals. Nursing leadership …

In this thesis, we focus on developing behaviours for socially interactive agents (SIAs). The context in which the agent is used is a self-regulated learning system for children. We focus on personalising learning objectives and interaction content within an intelligent tutoring system (ITS). We envision …

Sensors in offices mainly measure environmental data, missing qualitative insights into office workers’ perceptions. This opens the opportunity for active individual participation in data collection. To promote reflection on office well-being while overcoming experience sampling challenges in terms of …

Insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility decrease in response to bed rest, but the temporal and causal adaptations in human skeletal muscle metabolism are not fully defined. Here, we use an integrative approach to assess human skeletal muscle metabolism during bed rest and provide a multi-system …

In an era of information overload, relevance is key. Even more so in the physical store, where consumers are in a ‘shopping state of mind’ (Shankar et al., 2010), and where still a significant proportion of all purchase decisions is being made.

Older care recipients living at home increasingly rely on support from informal caregivers. As informal caregivers often combine these caregiving tasks with other tasks, such as paid work, they are at risk of becoming overloaded. To decrease informal caregiver burden, different forms of support are available …

Introduction: Patients with cancer receiving radio- or chemotherapy undergo many immunological stressors. Chronic regular exercise has been shown to positively influence the immune system in several populations, while exercise overload may have negative effects. Exercise is currently recommended for …

Recommenders play a significant role in our daily lives, making decisions for users on a regular basis. Their widespread adoption necessitates a thorough examination of how users interact with recommenders and the algorithms that drive them. An important form of interaction in these systems are algorithmic …
