As a thank you for your participation, we set up a lottery draw among participants who finished the study. We are pleased to announce the following users as the winners. The chances of a win were weighted and increased based on the scores gained through participation, using an algorithm.
Below, you can find the partial PAX ID of the winners. For example, if your PAX-ID (you can find it under the settings) was PAX_N_18hc2emzgn_7896, we only announce the first part of the ID, PAX_N_18hc2emzgn_.
So you need to check your ID, and if its first part fits the given ID, please write us an email (pax@interactivesystems.info) with the complete PAX-ID, including the last four digits. With those last four digits, we can verify your PAX-ID and send you a 20 Euro Amazon voucher. Please note that the winners have until June 16, 2021, at 13:00 CET, to send us this email. After this date, if the winner does not contact us, we will replace the ID with another participant from the list. So, please check back this website on this date if your name is not announced yet.

In this field study, you will interact with an app for mood assessment and stress reduction. The app PAX is provided by the chair of Interactive Systems at the University of Duisburg-Essen and can be installed on your smartphone. The app helps you to record your daily mood and stress levels and suggests different activities to reduce stress.
The study aims to improve recommender systems for mental health and overall well-being. With your participation, you will help to gather insights by means of interactive and user-oriented approaches for such health-oriented systems.
PAX aims at helping you understand and manage your state of mind as well as your day to day stress levels and mood. It tracks and assesses three areas of mental health - stress, mood, and self-perception. It also provides recommendations aimed at boosting your health as well as reducing and coping with your stress in the long run. Find more information about PAX here and here.
