However, 1 in 20 attempts supervised by professional. Mobile phone technology has potential provide personalized support. Motivational messages and behavioral-changes methods used usually face-to-face...
To support older mourners after the loss of their partner, LEAVES, an online self-help service that delivers LIVIA spousal bereavement intervention, was developed. It integrates embodied conversational agent and initial risk assessment. Based on iterative, human-centered, stakeholder inclusive approach, interviews with focus groups stakeholders were conducted to understand perspective grief using LEAVES. Subsequently, resulting technology model evaluated by means interviews, groups, survey....
Abstract When predicting someone's performance, people expect that short runs of consistent successful outcomes will continue—the hot‐hand. This tendency has been shown in contexts where athletes show a local performance streak, but no other information about their is provided. In real‐life settings, predictions often use global‐performance records like success‐rate probabilities, although judgements neglect such statistical information. Aimed at understanding psychological momentums,...
ABSTRACT In organizational contexts, managers often have to judge and predict others' performance. Previous research has consistently shown that when predicting someone's performance, people expect a local sequence of successful outcomes will continue—the hot‐hand. The present work proposes hot‐hand predictions occur streaks are dispositionally attributed the agents' intentionality explores how inclusion global performance success rates may guide inferences moderate after streak. Three...
