Digital wellbeing means that people use digital technologies to work productively, facilitate the social relationship, and sustain healthy lives in a balanced way without experiencing adverse side effects such as distraction, dependence, and safety/privacy threats. However, user interface research in HCI so far neglected how to design user interfaces that can effectively mitigate such side effects. While traditional user interface design mostly aims to minimize interaction friction, I argue that to promote digital wellbeing, increasing interaction friction or even blocking user interaction would be beneficial. This observation can be conceptualized as an interaction restraint framework that generalizes existing restrictive user interaction design for digital wellbeing. In this seminar, I’ll review some of my recent studies on understanding and prompting digital wellbeing. In addition, I will discuss the roles of machine intelligence and behavioral economics in designing interaction restraint systems for promoting digital wellbeing.
