  • Applying Technology in a Hybrid-Fashion to Create Dementia-Inclusive Community Spaces

    Elaine Czech · 2022 · Proceedings of the 24th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (ASSETS '22)

    This doctoral consortium paper presents PhD research exploring how technology can improve accessibility to community spaces and social programs for people living with dementia (PLWD) and their informal carers. The work is grounded in the growing practice of social prescribing —…

  • Designing Post-Trauma Self-Regulation Apps for People with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities

    Krishna Venkatasubramanian, Tina-Marie Ranalli · 2022 · Proceedings of the 24th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (ASSETS '22)

    This paper explores how to design mobile apps that help people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) engage in post-trauma self-regulation (PTSR) — activities that help manage negative emotional effects like anxiety, grief, and stress that arise from traumatic…

  • Mobile Phone Use by People with Mild to Moderate Dementia: Uncovering Challenges and Identifying Opportunities

    Mark Dixon, Jess Hartcher-O'Brien, Amanda Lazar, Leah Findlater · 2022 · Proceedings of the 24th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (ASSETS '22)

    This paper investigates how people with mild to moderate dementia use mobile phones in their daily lives, going beyond the common research focus on dementia-specific assistive apps to examine mainstream smartphone use. The authors conducted semi-structured interviews with 14…

  • Understanding How Sensory Changes Experienced by Individuals with a Range of Age-Related Cognitive Changes Can Affect Technology Use

    Emma Dixon, Amanda Lazar · 2022 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

    This qualitative study investigates how sensory changes experienced by people with age-related cognitive changes—including dementia, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and subjective cognitive decline (SCD)—affect their technology use. The researchers conducted interviews with 22…

  • MetaCogs: Mitigating Executive Dysfunction via Agent-based Modeling for Metacognitive Strategy Development

    Rua M. Williams, Kiana Alikhademi, Imani N. S. Munyaka, Juan E. Gilbert · 2022 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

    This study presents MetaCogs, a virtual reality experience designed to teach metacognitive strategies for managing executive dysfunction. Rather than targeting autistic or ADHD individuals as populations needing "intervention," the research centers autistic experiences as a…

  • Supporting People with Acquired Brain Injury to Use a Reminding App; Narrow-deep vs. Broad-shallow User Interfaces

    Matthew Jamieson, Marilyn Lennon, Breda Cullen, Stephen Brewster, Jonathan Evans · 2022 · ACM Transactions on Accessible Computing

    This study compares two contrasting user interface approaches for smartphone reminder apps used by people with acquired brain injury (ABI). "Broad-shallow" interfaces show lots of information on fewer screens (requiring scrolling), while "narrow-deep" interfaces present one…
