The current state of mobile technology demonstrated that dissemination of mobile health (mHealth) practices is dramatically increasing. However, the success of mobile health technologies does not depend on only the technology but the actual use as well. Understanding the perception and intention about mobile health use is important in order to utilize and adopt the mobile technologies in practice effectively. This chapter provided an overview on two different physician groups (mHealth application users and nonusers) revealing the differences in their attitudes (intentions of users and perceptions of nonusers) toward actual use of mHealth applications. The study employed a secondary research approach. A survey data collected from 137 mHealth user physicians and 122 nonuser physicians were used. A research model was tested in both groups, and the statistical findings were interpreted to identify the differences between the groups. Considering significant and nonsignificant factors influencing in each group, a number of suggestions were outlined in this chapter for developers, managers, and authorities.

Exploring behavior change features for mobile workout applications
ÜNAL, Perin; Cavdar, Seyma Kucukozer; Taşkaya Temizel, Tuğba; Eren, Pekin Erhan; IYENGAR, Sriram (2017-08-23)
With the rapid emergence of mobile technologies in recent years, mobile health (m-health) has become fundamental to healthcare. Persuasion strategies and behavior change support features are widely used in m-health applications to increase the effectiveness of these applications on users. However, in the literature, there is a lack of research to analyze the current situation of m-health applications particularly from the perspective of behavior change approaches. In this study, the workout applications in ...
Methodological foundations of mhealth designstudies: a content analysis of literature
Acar, Ahmet Faruk; Özkan Yıldırım, Sevgi (null; 2019-04-13)
Despite the pervasiveness of mobile devices and the number of available mobile health (mHealth) apps, a scaled nationwide mHealth solution for supporting continuous healthcare is lacking in many developing countries. Systematic reviews in mobile health field show various barriers to explain the lack of scalability and sustainability among mHealth interventions. However, little is known about the methodological soundness of mHealth app design studies. We conducted a literature review to investigate the theor...
Conceptualization of positive pregnancy experience with the integration of mobile health technologies
Günay, Aslı; Erbuğ, Çiğdem; Department of Industrial Design (2017)
Traditional health management issues are being redefined with diverse mobile technologies, and smartphones and applications have taken the lead. Particularly, increasing numbers of pregnancy applications have entered the market with far- reaching benefits; yet, they fall short to be integrated into daily lives of pregnant women, which implies that mobile health (m-health) technologies should not be merely information providers, decision makers, or problem solvers. In fact, they should go beyond by making pr...
AntiWare: An Automated Android Malware Detection Tool based on Machine Learning Approach and Official Market Metadata
Akhuseyinoglu, Nuray Baltaci; Akhuseyinoglu, Kamil (2016-10-22)
The prevalence of mobile devices has increased rapidly in recent years. People store valuable data like personal and financial information on those devices. In addition, applying "bring your own device (BYOD)" policy in companies has become popular. Hence, mobile devices are also source of valuable and confidential company information. Accordingly, there is a growing need for malware detection methods and tools to protection mobile devices against attacks targeting them. In this study, an automated feature-...
Location Prediction of Mobile Phone Users Using Apriori-Based Sequence Mining with Multiple Support Thresholds
Keles, Ilkcan; Ozer, Mert; Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı; Karagöz, Pınar (2014-09-19)
Due to the increasing use of mobile phones and their increasing capabilities, huge amount of usage and location data can be collected. Location prediction is an important task for mobile phone operators and smart city administrations to provide better services and recommendations. In this work, we propose a sequence mining based approach for location prediction of mobile phone users. More specifically, we present a modified Apriori-based sequence mining algorithm for the next location prediction, which invo...
