ABSTRACT
This paper presents a series of preliminary studies aimed at developing a framework for designing personal stress-care technology for women. We engaged 28 women in different research activities to investigate their relationships with daily-life stress and self-care. The paper concludes by presenting the initial findings and future plans for taking this research forward, which include the design and development of a Voice User Interface (VUI) to facilitate self care.
