Having a Social Impact by Getting Outside of Your Comfort Zone
As researchers, practitioners, and educators in human-computer interaction, it is important to strive for societal impact. Although it can be very enjoyable to work only within our own disciplinary communities, where we have a shared understanding and a shared history, focusing only within our own community limits the societal impact. Therefore, it is important to collaborate not only with people in other research and practitioner disciplines, but also educators, policymakers and other government officials, advocacy groups, and the broader research and development community. As we in the HCI community increase the use of Mechanical Turk, sensors, tweets, and other big data approaches for data collection, it moves us further away from interacting with the users and user communities that our design and development work impacts. We need to recommit to interacting with users, user communities, and the broader communities for whom HCI work can improve the quality of life. Our own traditions of user-centered design can lead us down this path of engagement and societal impact. In this presentation, Dr. Lazar will not only present about his research and teaching related to improving the user interaction experience for people with disabilities, but will also discuss various forms of collaboration and outreach that can improve the societal impact of our HCI work. This presentation will discuss engaging with the broader community on HCI-related topics, including 1) other disciplines, 2) advocacy groups, 3) public policy and legal communities, 4) tech transfer and corporate R and D communities, 5) educational communities (starting as early as pre-school), and 6) the towns and cities that we live in. Dr. Lazar will provide examples of his own experiences in these types of engagement, including long-term collaborations with the National Federation of the Blind, the National Down Syndrome Congress, the Maryland Library for the Blind and Physically Handicapped, and the Baltimore County Public Library, as well as continuous engagement with the higher education, library, legal, and public policy communities. Guidelines for performing these types of engagement will be presented.

Emerging virtual reality (VR) displays must overcome the prevalent issue of visual discomfort to provide high-quality and immersive user experiences. In particular, the mismatch between vergence and accommodation cues inherent to most stereoscopic displays has been a long standing challenge. In this paper, we evaluate several adaptive display modes afforded by focus-tunable optics or actuated displays that have the promise to mitigate visual discomfort caused by the vergence-accommodation conflict, and improve performance in VR environments. We also explore monovision as an un- conventional mode that allows each eye of an observer to accommodate to a different distance. While this technique is common practice in ophthalmology, we are the first to report its effectiveness for VR applications with a custom built set up. We demonstrate that monovision and other focus-tunable display modes can provide better user experiences and improve user performance in terms of reaction times and accuracy, particularly for nearby simulated distances in VR.

Abstract
Every company wants and needs to innovate to produce competitive products. This is particularly critical now in the US. Many of these prototype product ideas are quite good, but never see the light of day. At different times and within alternate companies they later become excellent products. There are many factors that contribute to good ideas apparently 'failing' to be released. Rarely are there papers or discussions held to dissect what factors led to their apparent rejection. Companies often repeat innovation mistakes, without benefitting from the hindsight from others. I will illustrate many media based products I have been involved with and were left on the shelf, only to come to life later. Although innovative enough, I will share the insights that probably led them not to come to market.

CHI 2016 SIGCHI Lifetime Research Award: Robert E Kraut - Online Communication and Psychological Well-Being
Robert E Kraut, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, United States
Online Communication and Psychological Well-Being
Since the dawn of the Internet era, researchers, policy-makers and the general public have questioned how new technology is influencing our psychological well-being. This talk will review research I?ve done with students and collaborators over the past 18 years to cast light on this question. Our earliest work in the 1990s indicated that more Internet use, independent of type, predicted increases in depression and declines in other measures of well-being. However, later research that differentiated communication with stronger from communication with weaker ties and differentiated types of communication shows that whom one communicates with online and the nature of the communication are the important factors, not Internet use per se. In Facebook, for example, receiving targeted, composed communication from strong ties predicts improvements in well-being, while viewing wide-audience broadcasts, receiving one-click feedback, and receiving composed communication from weak ties does not. In online health support groups, it is messages exchanged in public that predicts improvements in well-being, while private message exchanges predict declines.

Mind The Gap
Over his career, Jeff has oscillated between research and practice. Now he finds himself settling into the role of "educator of practitioners": translating research for designers and developers. Come hear how the oscillation started, what the tensions are between research and practice, and how to (and NOT to) make research useful to practitioners. Some examples will come from Jeff's recent work helping practitioners design products and services for an aging population. He'll add in a few choice photos from Africa.

Emerging virtual reality (VR) displays must overcome the prevalent issue of visual discomfort to provide high-quality and immersive user experiences. In particular, the mismatch between vergence and accommodation cues inherent to most stereoscopic displays has been a long standing challenge. In this paper, we evaluate several adaptive display modes afforded by focus-tunable optics or actuated displays that have the promise to mitigate visual discomfort caused by the vergence-accommodation conflict, and improve performance in VR environments. We also explore monovision as an un- conventional mode that allows each eye of an observer to accommodate to a different distance. While this technique is common practice in ophthalmology, we are the first to report its effectiveness for VR applications with a custom built set up. We demonstrate that monovision and other focus-tunable display modes can provide better user experiences and improve user performance in terms of reaction times and accuracy, particularly for nearby simulated distances in VR.

Abstract
Every company wants and needs to innovate to produce competitive products. This is particularly critical now in the US. Many of these prototype product ideas are quite good, but never see the light of day. At different times and within alternate companies they later become excellent products. There are many factors that contribute to good ideas apparently 'failing' to be released. Rarely are there papers or discussions held to dissect what factors led to their apparent rejection. Companies often repeat innovation mistakes, without benefitting from the hindsight from others. I will illustrate many media based products I have been involved with and were left on the shelf, only to come to life later. Although innovative enough, I will share the insights that probably led them not to come to market.

Robert E Kraut, Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, United States
Online Communication and Psychological Well-Being
Since the dawn of the Internet era, researchers, policy-makers and the general public have questioned how new technology is influencing our psychological well-being. This talk will review research I?ve done with students and collaborators over the past 18 years to cast light on this question. Our earliest work in the 1990s indicated that more Internet use, independent of type, predicted increases in depression and declines in other measures of well-being. However, later research that differentiated communication with stronger from communication with weaker ties and differentiated types of communication shows that whom one communicates with online and the nature of the communication are the important factors, not Internet use per se. In Facebook, for example, receiving targeted, composed communication from strong ties predicts improvements in well-being, while viewing wide-audience broadcasts, receiving one-click feedback, and receiving composed communication from weak ties does not. In online health support groups, it is messages exchanged in public that predicts improvements in well-being, while private message exchanges predict declines.

Mind The Gap
Over his career, Jeff has oscillated between research and practice. Now he finds himself settling into the role of "educator of practitioners": translating research for designers and developers. Come hear how the oscillation started, what the tensions are between research and practice, and how to (and NOT to) make research useful to practitioners. Some examples will come from Jeff's recent work helping practitioners design products and services for an aging population. He'll add in a few choice photos from Africa.

When My Baby
You know you made my life complete
You put the rhythm in my feet
I look at you and it all makes sense
Breaking down all my defence
You put the heart into my soul
And let the music take control
When you're dancing next to me
Everything comes naturally
CHORUS
And my heart just skips a beat
And I loose myself completely
From my head down to my feet
When my baby dances with me
Heart just skips a beat
Lose myself completely
Head down to my feet
(oh when my baby)
Baby dances with me
You put the colour in my life
When everything was black and white
You said that we were meant to be
You just can't fight the chemistry
In perfect rhythm on the floor
Soulmates now and ever more
You said lets dance, I said I will
More and more the time stood still
CHORUS
And my heart just skips a beat
And I loose myself completely
From my head down to my feet
When my baby dances with me
Heart just skips a beat
(oh when my baby)
Lose myself completely
Head down to my feet
(oh when my baby)
Baby dances with me
You put the heart into my soul
And let the music take control
When you're dancing next to me
Everything comes naturally
CHORUS
And my heart just skips a beat
And I loose myself completely
From my head down to my feet
When my baby dances with me
