Abstract：
The development of neuroscientific techniques enabling the recording of brain and peripheral nervous system activity has fueled research in cognitive science. Recent technological advancements offer new possibilities for inducing behavioral change, particularly through cost-effective Internet-based interventions. However, limitations in laboratory equipment volume have hindered the generalization of results to real-life contexts. The advent of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, such as wearables, equipped with sensors and microchips, has ushered in a new era in behavior change techniques. Wearables, including smartwatches, electronic tattoos, and more, are poised for massive adoption, with an expected annual growth rate of 55% over the next five years. These devices enable personalized instructions, leading to increased productivity and efficiency, particularly in industrial production. Additionally, the healthcare sector has seen a significant demand for wearables, with over 80% of global consumers willing to use them for health monitoring. This research explores the primary biometric applications of wearables and their impact on users\' well-being, focusing on the integration of behavior change techniques facilitated by IoT devices. Wearables have revolutionized health monitoring by providing real-time feedback, personalized interventions, and gamification. They encourage positive behavior changes by delivering immediate feedback, tailored recommendations, and gamified experiences, leading to sustained improvements in health. Furthermore, wearables seamlessly integrate with digital platforms, enhancing their impact through social support and connectivity. However, privacy and data security concerns must be addressed to maintain users\' trust. As technology continues to advance, the refinement of IoT devices\' design and functionality is crucial for promoting behavior change and improving health outcomes. This study aims to investigate the effects of behavior change techniques facilitated by wearables on individuals\' health outcomes and the role of wearables in promoting a healthier lifestyle.
摘要：
能够记录大脑和周围神经系统活动的神经科学技术的发展推动了认知科学的研究。最近的技术进步为诱导行为改变提供了新的可能性，特别是通过具有成本效益的基于互联网的干预措施。然而,实验室设备数量的限制阻碍了结果在现实生活中的推广。物联网（IoT）设备的出现，比如可穿戴设备，装有传感器和微芯片，开启了行为改变技术的新纪元。可穿戴设备,包括智能手表,电子纹身,还有更多,准备大规模采用，预计未来五年的年增长率为55%。这些设备启用个性化指令，提高生产力和效率，特别是在工业生产中。此外,医疗保健行业对可穿戴设备的需求很大，超过80％的全球消费者愿意使用它们进行健康监测。这项研究探讨了可穿戴设备的主要生物识别应用及其对用户福祉的影响，专注于物联网设备促进的行为改变技术的集成。可穿戴设备通过提供实时反馈，彻底改变了健康监测，个性化干预，和游戏化。他们通过提供即时反馈来鼓励积极的行为改变，量身定制的建议，和游戏化的体验，导致健康状况的持续改善。此外，可穿戴设备与数字平台无缝集成，通过社会支持和连通性增强其影响。然而,必须解决隐私和数据安全问题，以维护用户的信任。随着技术的不断进步,物联网设备的设计和功能的改进对于促进行为改变和改善健康结果至关重要。本研究旨在调查可穿戴设备促进的行为改变技术对个人健康结果的影响，以及可穿戴设备在促进更健康的生活方式中的作用。
