Fact sheet: U.S. teens and adults at the intersection of health and technology

February 11, 2019 By Susannah Fox Leave a Comment

Fact sheet: U.S. teens and adults at the intersection of health and technology

In an earlier post I shared the history of the “fact sheets” I maintain about health and technology. I thought I’d share a few highlights from the grandmother of them all — key data points on U.S. teens and adults and their use of technology to pursue health. It is the first one I created when I […]

Helping people find the needle in a data haystack

Helping people find the needle in a data haystack

One of the most important customer-service lessons I ever learned was from E-patient Dave: when it comes to disseminating research, give people what they need, not what you want to create. About a decade ago, Dave was on deadline to turn in slides for a presentation. He needed one key survey finding to illustrate a […]

Peer health advice among teens and young adults

Six years ago, the last time I had the opportunity to measure it, a Pew Research survey found that about two in ten U.S. adults have gone online to find people who might have health concerns similar to theirs. Now, in a report we published on July 31, a Hopelab/Well Being Trust survey of 14- to […]

Teens and young adults:
In their own words

August 2, 2018 By Susannah Fox Leave a Comment

Teens and young adults:<BR> In their own words

The Hopelab/Well Being Trust report is based on a nationally-representative online survey which we designed to have as many open-end questions as we could squeeze into it.

Digital health practices among teens and young adults in the U.S.

July 31, 2018 By Susannah Fox 13 Comments

Digital health practices among teens and young adults in the U.S.

I am thrilled to share new, national survey data on the digital health landscape. Thanks to funding and guidance from Hopelab and the Well Being Trust, Vicky Rideout and I measured how teens and young adults (14- to 22-year-olds) pursue health and well-being using the tools at their disposal — apps, peer advice, online communications […]
