17、This report details the findings of the Wellcome Trust project entitled The Digital Health Generation: the impact of “healthy lifestyle” technologies on young peoples learning, identities and health practices (203254/Z/16/Z). The project generated new insights on young peoples use of digital health

18、technologies and involved research with over 1,000 young people and families. 05 DIGITAL HEALTH GENERATION | WWW.DIGITALHEALTHGENERATION.NET Digital health technologies are having a powerful impact on encouraging young people to approach health as a personal practice. Young people in the UK and else

19、where are growing up in a time when health care is increasingly turning towards digital tools to meet growing demand. In recent years, we have seen a significant growth in a range of digital technologies used for health purposes. These include websites, blogs, social media platforms, mobile phone ap

20、plications (apps) and wearable technologies (e.g. fitness bands with sensors). Many of these devices and software are focused on promoting healthy lifestyles. They can be used to find information about health, or as a tool to collect, track and share data about our health (e.g. how far we run, how m

21、uch we eat). Despite the rapid growth of these technologies, there are no guidelines for those with responsibility for young people (practitioners, coaches, teachers, researchers or families) to help support young peoples engagement with health-related digital devices and media. The research is a wo

22、rld-first, addressing major and pressing gaps in health knowledge by providing unique insights into young English peoples experiences of digital health technologies promoting healthy lifestyles. Throughout the two-year study, a mixture of quantitative and qualitative methods was used to undertake re

23、search with over 1,000 young people and their parents in South-West England between 2017 and 2019. The study involved three separate components: 1) a survey completed by 1,019 respondents; 2) 30 in-depth interviews and one 06 DIGITAL HEALTH GENERATION | WWW.DIGITALHEALTHGENERATION.NET focus group di

24、scussion with a further eight young people; and 3) a study which involved seven young people wearing a tracking device and sharing their experiences with us in real time plus interviews with their parents. The project team also undertook a series of engagement activities to bring together different

25、voices to exchange ideas and inform policy development and professional practice. Through a series of events and digital platforms, young people, families, academics, non-profit groups, industry and designers, health professionals, policy makers, teachers and others with responsibility for young peo

26、ples care participated in these discussions with us. The experiences of young people documented in this report point to the complexities of digital health and the need to avoid technological determinism: technology is neither inherently oppressive nor empowering. We found that many of the young peop

27、le who participated in our research and forums have experiences of digital health which are both positive and problematic. Taken together, our data collection and engagement activities provide detailed insights into the digital health experiences of our young participants. These activities have info

28、rmed the development of a series of recommendations and guidelines to support a range of stakeholders interested in digital health in the UK, including but not limited to: parents, coaches, teachers, health professionals, policy- makers, digital health industry and researchers. While our findings ar

29、e drawn on young people living in South West England, they have relevance for other countries in the Global North. The young participants in our study are active users of digital health technology. Internet-based activity and app use took place through personalised devices (tablets and smartphones)

30、and the internet use was a regular feature of their everyday lives. Many of the digital practices associated with these technologies reflect a shift towards young people becoming health consumers and expectations of self-management of their health. This group of English young people access a vast ra

31、nge of health-related content online, through multiple devices, from a young age. Moreover, they use these technologies to actively learn about health and track and monitor a range of health behaviours. The participants used a range of different technologies and move regularly between these: often t

32、hese systems are linked or integrated. Rather than remaining loyal to particular tools, the young participants frequently selected technologies which were relevant to them to meet particular needs as these arise. They were frequent users of search engines and health information websites. They also u

33、sed YouTube, online discussion groups, social media, apps or wearable devices. Young people are particularly reliant on technology for learning about a healthy body. Among the benefits of such experiences for our participants was the gaining of better knowledge of their bodies, illness and healthcar

34、e and feeling more in control of health and wellbeing states. While the participants valued the convenience, accessibility, detail and diversity of information offered by digital media and devices, their experiences also highlighted concerns about navigating the volume of information. Of particular

35、significance was the importance of face- to-face as well as online relationships and personal connections with other people for providing information and support, including family members and friends as well as medical professionals. Commercial health technologies and social media play a particularl

36、y powerful role in how young people learn about the healthy body. In addition to having to make sense of existing official knowledge, young people are also actively shaping health knowledge through the different media and material they produce themselves. While young people often draw on the health

37、advice (e.g. training plans, dietary advice) provided through digital health (e.g. training plans, dietary advice), many were concerned that they would not be able to recognise if they were over-exercising or dieting too much. As such, they expressed the need for health and fitness apps to have warn

38、ing alerts or limits built into them, involving messages advising them on when they might be exercising or dieting excessively. Digital health tools can lead some young people to engage with forms of self- monitoring which have been linked with disordered eating or excessive exercising regimens. In

39、extreme cases, parents or others have intervened to stop young people from using fitness and dieting apps because of their perceived harmful effects. 07 DIGITAL HEALTH GENERATION | WWW.DIGITALHEALTHGENERATION.NET Young people are using an expanding range of digital devices for health (social media,

40、apps, websites, videos, images, wearable devices) and the data on and about their bodies and health practices continue to accumulate, sometimes without their knowledge. As a result, their bodies and health states are becoming increasingly datafied and quantified. This has a significant impact on how

41、 they come to understand themselves and their health. The participants highly valued the capacity of digital technologies to generate detailed information about their bodies and health states and imagined new technologies that would be able to achieve even more detailed personalisation and customisa

42、tion. However, they expressed little knowledge or concern about how their personal health data may be exploited by others. Digital technologies provide opportunities and risks and they do not operate in isolation. Digital health practices provide a way of understanding the different ways in which yo

43、ung people use digital health in the context of their complex lives. Young people are not necessarily digital natives. Our participants demonstrated varied forms of literacy, understanding and opportunities and a better understanding of inequalities is needed by those involved in the design and deli

44、very of digital health care. The role of others is therefore crucial in data interpretation and responses. For our participants, not having access to someone who could help them interpret and make sense of health information and their personal data emerged as a key inequality and point of difference

45、 in their learning. Some participants said they did not have access to an adult who can help guide them and felt this inhibited their positive engagement with digital health technologies. Parents use different strategies to monitor what their children might do online. Some put in place rules and res

46、trictions and others prefer to talk to their children and guide them. Key findings: 1. 70% of the survey respondents overall reported using digital technologies for health purposes, while 55% of respondents identified their smartphones as the main technology they used to learn about health. Particip

47、ants reported that they mostly have to share larger devices (laptop or desktop PC) for finding health information. 2. A total of 42% of the respondents used digital health technology specifically to learn about how to improve their health. 3. The participants had accessed digital health technologies

48、 from a very young age: 75% of survey respondents said that they owned their first mobile/tablet between the ages of 8-11 years. 4. Young people reported a high degree of autonomy in how they used technology: 62% of survey respondents said adults did not check their internet use, 72% said that they

49、can use any technology to which they have access and 68% reported that they can do what they want when it comes to searching online for health information. 5. This freedom poses some risks, given that one in ten young people had identified something they considered to be inappropriate online in the week leading up to our survey. They were also concerned about advertising online and were unsure how to navigate or avoid this. 6. YouTube was the most popular source of health information, with 44% of survey respondents reporting use. Fitnes
