\nMuch popular press has been given to the Q uantified Self movement – a label for both the increased ability to obtain and analyze personal data due to the explosion of consumer wearable devic es and the accompanying online community that has emerged. The ideal repre sented by QS is a democratization of data. For instance\, it is now possib le for an individual involved in QS practices to know more about their hea lth than their professional healthcare providers. In terms of media\, this also represents a new space for exploration\, as personal data become obj ects to be shared\, discussed\, and visualized. However\, who is participa ting in Quantified Self activities\, and is it equitable?
\nAn earli er analysis we had conducted of online video archives from Quantified Self meetup groups suggests that participation is\, like the Maker movement\, heavily male (82.5%) and non-Hispanic white (84.1%). All participants were adults. As such\, we were curious about how a Quantified Self experiences might look different with a group of a very different composition. Theref ore\, we attempted to seed a small Quantified Self group comprised of five Latina high school girls\, provided them with wearable and other devices for their use\, and provided technical support for data acquisition and an alysis. We found that there were important circumstantial challenges that they faced as both youth and individuals from families with much lower inc ome. In our presentation\, we will discuss our experiences and lessons lea rned about both the Quantified Self and its scalability to non-dominant po pulations.
