Methods and systems are provided to identify an individual's health risk of developing a disease or disorder, and to motivate the user to adopt a behavioral change to mitigate the progression of the identified disease or disorder. An individual's medical history is analyzed to determine diseases that a user is at risk of developing, as well as positive and negative behaviors of the user relating to the disease. For a negative behavior, the system identifies a behavioral change that is to be promoted to the individual through a cohort. The system then sends notifications to the cohort, for the cohort to promote the behavioral change to the individual via a client system associated with the individual. Methods and systems are also provided to send notifications to a cohort to promote maintaining the behavioral change to reduce the likelihood that the individual will revert to former behavior.
A method, in a data processing system comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the at least one memory comprising instructions executed by the at least one processor to cause the at least one processor to adaptively provide electronic notifications to promote a behavioral change of a user, the method comprising:
A system for adaptively promoting a behavioral change, the system comprising at least one processor configured to:
A computer program product for adaptively promoting a behavioral change, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to:
