Exploring correlational information in aggregated quantified self data dashboards
Simon Jones · 2015
Data aggregation platforms are often depicted as a panacea for users wanting to examine correlations within the multi-faceted data that they collect. In this paper we describe inherent challenges with the provision of multi-faceted, correlational information in data aggregation tools, and present a set of hypotheses related to these challenges. We point to design considerations for improving such tools and describe an on-going study of one such tool, Exist.io, in which we aim to explore the issues discussed.
