Background: Despite high hopes associated with mobile media’s possibilities for chronic disease self-management, empirical evidence on their effectiveness remains inconclusive so far. To overcome these gaps in our knowledge, we need to reconsider the use of mobile media for chronic disease self-management. Mobile media can be used ubiquitously, providing a theoretically unlimited breadth of situational contexts. In addition, most mobile media are metamedia, i.e., structures into which an unlimited number of constituent media can be embedded and rearranged. Hence, we need to extend our concept of mobile media use beyond the simple dichotomy of use versus non-use or adoption versus rejection. To do so, we draw on the niche model of mobile media use. With this, we can model mobile media use in chronic disease self-management on a situational level, integrating features on the device side, users’ motivations and gratifications, and situational factors. This approach allows us to uncover intra- and inter-individual differing patterns of mobile media use in chronic disease self-management. Objective: We want to map the specific niches of mobile media use in chronic disease self-management for diabetes type 1 and 2 and asthma/COPD. First, we will systematize extant empirical evidence on the uses of mHealth in the self-management of these chronic conditions, explicitly considering the role of the entire mobile media ecosystem. We will then map types of mobile media use for the self-management of diabetes and asthma/COPD on the situation and person level. Based on these findings, we will reevaluate and enhance the niche concept. Finally, we want to investigate how persons living with diabetes and asthma/COPD contextualize our findings, considering their experiences. Work program: We will conduct five empirical studies to meet these objectives. First, we will conduct two systematic reviews on the uses of mHealth for the self-management of diabetes type 1 and 2 (study 1) and asthma/COPD (study 3). Based on two in-situ studies, we will then map the specific niches that structure the self-management of individuals living with diabetes (study 2) and asthma/COPD (study 4;) using mobile devices. Finally, we conduct focus groups with individuals living with diabetes and asthma/COPD to contextualize the findings of studies 2 and 4 (study 5). Collaborations and Interest groups: bilateral collaborations mainly with IP2 effects and IP3 privacy; participation in CG continued use Expected results/contributions: The results of this project will guide further studies on the usefulness and implementation of mHealth interventions in chronic disease self-management, as well as, ultimately, the development of adequate mHealth products to support self-management for diabetes and asthma/COPD patients. In addition, this project will provide insights into the empirical applicability of the niche concept to study mobile media use practices in general and in the context of mHealth.

背景：尽管移动媒体具有慢性病自我管理的潜力相关的希望很高，但到目前为止，其有效性的经验证据仍然尚无定论。为了克服这些差距，我们需要重新考虑将移动媒体用于慢性病自我管理。移动媒体可以普遍使用，从而提供了情境环境的理论无限范围。此外，大多数移动媒体都是METAMEDIA，即可以嵌入和重新安排无限数量的组成培养基的结构。因此，我们需要将移动媒体使用的概念扩展到简单的使用二分法与非使用或采用与拒绝的差异之外。为此，我们利用移动媒体使用的利基模型。这样，我们可以在情境水平上对移动媒体的使用进行建模，从而在设备方面整合功能，用户的动机和满足以及情境因素。这种方法使我们能够发现移动媒体在慢性疾病自我管理中使用的内部和个体间分化模式。目的：我们要绘制移动媒体在慢性疾病自我管理中使用的特定媒体使用型糖尿病和哮喘/COPD的特定生态位。首先，我们将系统化有关MHealth在这些慢性疾病的自我管理中使用的现有经验证据，并明确考虑整个移动媒体生态系统的作用。然后，我们将在情况和人层面上绘制移动媒体使用的类型，以自我管理糖尿病和哮喘/COPD。根据这些发现，我们将重新评估和增强利基概念。最后，我们想调查患有糖尿病和哮喘/COPD的人们如何考虑他们的发现，以考虑他们的发现。工作计划：我们将进行五项实证研究以实现这些目标。首先，我们将对MHealth的用途进行两项系统评价，用于自我管理仅1和2（研究1）和哮喘/COPD（研究3）。然后，基于两项原位研究，我们将使用移动设备绘制糖尿病患者的自我管理的特定细分市场，并使用移动设备进行哮喘/COPD（研究4;）。最后，我们与仅1和2（研究1）和哮喘/COPD患有糖尿病的人进行焦点小组，以将研究2和4的发现背景化（研究5）。协作和利益组：双边合作主要与IP2效果和IP3隐私；参与CG持续使用预期结果/贡献：该项目的结果将指导有关MHealth干预措施在慢性疾病自我管理中的实用性和实施​​的进一步研究，以及最终，最终开发了足够的MHealth产品以支持糖尿病和哮喘/COPD患者的自我管理。此外，该项目将提供有关利基概念在MHealth总体和MHealth背景下研究移动媒体使用实践的经验适用性的见解。
