Abstract

This poster considers the role that information and context may play in health management. We employ a well-known taxonomy of techniques for promoting behavioral change to consider how social media authors describe their recovery from substance use. We harvest discussion posts from subreddits, or discussion forums, about alcohol, cannabis, and opioids, and perform content analysis to identify behavioral change techniques (BCTs) described in the content. We then consider the role that the context of information use plays in these BCTs, as well as how interventions and technologies might be leveraged to better support the recovery process.
