Collectivistic health promotion tools: Accounting for the relationship between culture, food and nutrition ?
We present the design and evaluation of two systems that help users care for the wellbeing of their community. Participants sought tools that facilitate a positive portrayal of the collective. Collectivistic users contributed more content than individualistic users. Our systems helped empower content contributors and viewers. Study participants desired but did not share cultural foods in our tools.
