TRY OUR PROTOTYPE ON YOUR MOBILE DEVICE

ALGORITHM DEVELOPMENT• Self-reports were used as the ground-truth criteria for

the machine learning algorithms• We started with easy-to-detect relationship states• We then recursively fed predicted scores into the new

models to improve the performance of later algorithms

WIREFRAME• Based on previous research and theory, we designed a

user interface for a mobile intervention system for use with families and couples

• After developing this measurement scheme, we built algorithms to automatically detect these constructs

• Conflict, divorce, and interpersonal violence have far-reaching economic, psychological, and health costs for children and their families1,2

• Family fragmentation is estimated to cost US taxpayers $112 billion annually3

• We propose a framework for developing a mobile intervention system for improving relationship functioning in families and couples

• Our goal was to use these data to develop machine learning algorithms that could be used to automatically and passively detect theoretically-relevant relationship states via mobile technologies

• Results provide initial proof-of-concept that it is possible to detect indices of relationship functioning in daily life with reasonable accuracy

• Next steps involve building and launching the fully functioning application system to detect important relationship processes in real-life settings as they naturalistically unfold
