ABSTRACT
Mobile phones may interrupt in any place at any time. Using the SocioXensor research tool on people's own mobile phones, we conducted an experience sampling study to explore which context information predicts a person's availability for a phone call, and which context information people wanted to disclose to particular social relations. Like other studies, we found that a small set of context information can help initiators of phone calls to improve their ability to know when recipients are receptive to phone calls. We also found that if we restrict the information to information recipients actually want to disclose, which is only a small subset of all information, enough context information is still available for initiators of phone calls to improve their ability to know when recipients are receptive to phone calls.

An in-situ study of mobile phone notifications
MobileHCI '14: Proceedings of the 16th international conference on Human-computer interaction with mobile devices & servicesNotifications on mobile phones alert users about new messages, emails, social network updates, and other events. However, little is understood about the nature and effect of such notifications on the daily lives of mobile users. We report from a one-...
Knock, knock! who's there? Putting the user in control of managing interruptions
The abundance of communication technology, such as the omnipresence of cell phones, has not only increased our ability to reach people anytime anywhere, but also the likelihood of being interrupted. As a result, there is value in understanding how to ...
Investigating episodes of mobile phone activity as indicators of opportune moments to deliver notifications
MobileHCI '11: Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Human Computer Interaction with Mobile Devices and ServicesWe investigate whether opportune moments to deliver notifications surface at the endings of episodes of mobile interaction (making voice calls or receiving SMS) based on the assumption that the endings collocate with naturally occurring breakpoint in ...
