Abstract
This study explores the potential benefits of an interactive system that supports individuals in collecting data and reflecting on their self-concept and self-aspects in daily life. Through a think-aloud study (N = 10) and in-situ deployment (N = 7), we design, deploy, and evaluate a self-tracking technology probe. The results suggest that participants found benefit in participating in the study and tracking their self-aspects, with all seven participants in the in-situ deployment expressing interest in continuing to use the system after the study. The study highlights the usefulness of supporting self-reflection at various temporal scales, and has implications for the design of personal informatics systems utilizing the multiple self-aspects framework and Day Reconstruction Method. This research contributes to the understanding of the potential benefits of interactive systems in supporting self-tracking of the experience of self-aspects in daily life.
