- Additional information
- The proposed design guidelines to support habit formation informed the design of several health technologies including managing ADHD (https://doi.org/10.1145/2858036.2858157) and mood tracking (https://doi.org/10.1093/iwc/iwz012). The paper showed that standard reminder approaches can hinder habit formation and highlighted the importance of contextual cues. Altmetric data shows widespread media coverage, with 31 organisations covering the research, including Yahoo! News (https://www.altmetric.com/details/8607594/news).
