  • 用双代理系统分析数据并生成口语化统计描述。
  • 5人实验显示用户对数据理解更深入,行动更具体。
  • 适合关注健康自我反思的普通用户或研究者。

可穿戴设备的个人健康数据通常以图表和统计摘要形式呈现,需用户主动解读模式与意义。本文探索一种新交互范式:通过具身对话代理与个人健康数据进行对话式反思。系统结合轻量级数据预处理与Unity构建的具身角色,采用双代理设计——观察代理提取描述性统计与时间趋势,呈现代理则以‘口语化统计’形式传达结果,刻意避免临床建议,以隔离交互模态的影响。通过模拟自我用户研究(N=5),参与者基于LifeSnaps数据集设定健康身份与目标,在自身主体设计下对比传统仪表板探索与具身对话反思。评估聚焦感知理解度、生成行为的具体性及从被动观看向主动意义建构的认知转变。论文贡献了一个功能原型、客观健康数据叙事生成的设计模式,以及关于具身如何影响个人健康指标解读的初步实证见解。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Personal health data from wearables are typically presented through dashboards of charts and summary statistics, requiring users to actively interpret patterns and implications. We explore an alternative interaction paradigm: engaging with personal health data through an embodied conversational agent that facilitates objective data reflection in dialogue with the user. We present a system that combines lightweight preprocessing of wearable data with a Unity-based embodied character. Internally, the system follows a dual-agent design in which an Observer agent extracts descriptive statistics and temporal trends, and a Presenter agent communicates these findings through "spoken statistics," intentionally refraining from clinical advice to isolate the impact of the interaction modality. We evaluate this approach through a simulated-self user study (N=5) using a within-subject design. Participants adopted health personas and goals derived from the LifeSnaps dataset to compare traditional dashboard exploration with embodied conversational reflection. Our evaluation focuses on perceived understanding, the specificity of generated actions, and the cognitive shift from passive viewing to active sensemaking. The paper contributes a functional prototype, a design pattern for objective health data narrative generation, and early empirical insights into how embodiment affects the interpretation of personal health metrics.
