Introducing the RSDiary App for the Collection of Resilience Strategies

Abstract

Drawing from the fields of human computer interaction (HCI) and resilience engineering, researchers have begun to take an interest in the emerging topic of cognitive resilience strategies. These comprise behavioural interventions and tactics that people adopt to foresee and mitigate threats such as error, and maintain performance. In order to validate conceptual frameworks resulting from analysis of these resilience strategies, and as a development of a previously undertaken traditional diary study, we have developed the RSDiary app for collecting such strategies. In this poster-demo, we introduce the notion of cognitive resilience strategies, present the RSDiary app, outline the process that led to its inception, and discuss the potential contributions of the tool itself, and of the data resulting from it.
