problem

Digital and analog forms of memory aids for time-specific tasks are visually, audibly, and/or physically intrusive.

slide-4

  • perational definition

non-intrusive:not involving visual or tangible cues

digital memory aid

Dosecast “was acceptable in terms of ease of use…and perceived usefulness”

Wu, Yelena P., et al. "Use of a Smartphone Application for Prompting Oral Medication Adherence Among Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer."

analog memory aid

Retrieval through association “Six laboratory and field experiments showed that the reminders-through-association approach can dramatically increase people’s success at following through on their intentions.”

goal

Utilize odour as a non-intrusive method to cue memory

  • f time-specific tasks

memory principles

Proust Phenomenon Olfactory Bulb

slide-9
SLIDE 9

proust phenomenon

“odour has the ability to “cue autobiographical memories which are highly vivid, affectively toned and very old” (Chu and Downes).

  • lfactory bulb

“The olfactory bulb connects to structures in the brain including the amygdala, hippocampus and thalamus, which have been shown to be involved in memory function and the modulation of emotions.” “the hippocampus, which is involved in associative learning” https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3425/6/3/22/htm

hypothesis

Non-intrusive memory retrieval of time-specific tasks can be accomplished through the presentation of an odour.

slide-14
SLIDE 14

proposed intervention

Sniff! A system that conditions odour to a time-specific task so that each time you smell the odour, you remember to perform the task

system components

in-home odour dispenser (IHOD) compatible smartphone application

use case

  • 83 year old man
  • needs to take new medication every 2 days
  • does not know how to use digital devices
  • son is able to configure app through his mobile phone

  • dour exposure

Odour will only be noticeable by the user for up to 5 minutes. “constant exposure to an odour for more than 20 min, sensitivity is greatly reduced and when one is exposed to the same odour on a daily basis olfactory sensitivity to that odour dramatically diminishes,” (Herz, “The Role of”).

uniqueness of odour

Odours will unique in scent. “olfactory cognition is unlike cognition mediated through

  • ur other senses in that it is extremely resistant to

retroactive interference [67,68]. That is, the first association formed to an odour typically remains tied to that odour despite multiple future experiences of the same

  • dour in different contexts.”
