Complementarity with agenda functionality Sample Clauses

Complementarity with agenda functionality. With regard to the XxXxXx project, implementing a tutorial of intention implementation could be a successful complement of the agenda function, from the cognitive well-being point of view. In fact, users were concerned that the tablet “would remember instead of them” and were afraid of becoming completely dependent on the system. End users also complained that the device will not be portable and thus cannot be taken outside of the house. That means that people will be “left alone” when leaving the house, and may forget what they tablet previously remembered them to do when going out. Therefore, teaching the users a strategy to remember to do things could, on the one hand, reinforce the perceived self-efficacy of subjects, and reduces the feeling of being dependent on the device. On the other hand it could be a successful complement, when outside the house, to the reminder and agenda service of the device! That is, when the avatar displays the program of the day, the user can use the implementation intentions technique to make sure he will remember to do the action when confronted with the situation. With implementation intentions, there is no more need of reminders, so it’s perfectly adapted when the user gets-out!
