Study Summary

MyBehavior is a mobile application with a suggestion engine that learns a user's physical activity and dietary behavior, and provides finely-tuned personalized suggestions. To our knowledge, MyBehavior is the first smartphone app to provide personalized health suggestions automatically, going beyond commonly used one-size-fits-all prescriptive approaches, or tailored interventions from health-care professionals. MyBehavior uses an online multi-armed bandit model to automatically generate context-sensitive and personalized activity/food suggestions by learning the user's actual behavior. The app continually adapts its suggestions by exploiting the most frequent healthy behaviors, while sometimes exploring non-frequent behaviors, in order to maximize the user's chance of reaching a health goal (e.g. weight loss).

Primary Outcome

The primary outcome is to measure efficacy of MyBehavior suggestions. Efficacy will be measured in two dimensions (1) whether users intend to follow the automated suggestions from MyBehavior (2) effectiveness of automated suggestions in actual behavior change. User intentions towards following MyBehavior suggestions are measured using a 5 point likert scale. The investigators will ask users to rate whether they can follow the suggestions on an average day within a scale of 1-5 (1- I can't follo
