ABSTRACT
Researchers have developed systems estimating mobile users’ receptivity for instant messaging (IM) [4]. However, it remains unclear how users would like their estimated status to be presented to their IM contacts. We developed an Android application that estimated a user’s receptivity status and conducted a mixed-method study with 37 IM users to understand how they wanted their estimated status to be presented, including ESM and semi-structured interviews. We found that participants preferred a textual presentation to show their receptivity status over both numeric and graphical presentation. Also, participants more often modified the status from showing interruptibility to showing attentiveness and/or responsiveness than the other way. It was because participants wanted their status more informative of how fast they could read and respond to messages. Participants also more often decreased their receptivity level than increased it to show that they were busy, either real or fake.

IM Receptivity and Presentation-type Preferences among Users of a Mobile App with Automated Receptivity-status Adjustment
CHI '21: Proceedings of the 2021 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsResearchers have long attempted to estimate instant-messaging (IM) users’ attentiveness, responsiveness, and interruptibility. Yet, IM users’ self-presentation of their receptivity, and their perceptions of automated adjustment/revelation of their ...
Effects of content and time of delivery on receptivity to mobile interruptions
MobileHCI '10: Proceedings of the 12th international conference on Human computer interaction with mobile devices and servicesIn this paper we investigate effects of the content of interruptions and of the time of interruption delivery on mobile phones. We review related work and report on a naturalistic quasi-experiment using experience-sampling that showed that the ...
