The University of Florida, through its Division of Sponsored Research, was awarded a $374,996 Project Grant by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE, CFDA 47.070) program. This grant supports a 1-year research project titled "SATC: CORE: MEDIUM: Situation-Aware Identification and Rectification of Regrettable Privacy Decisions." The project aims to develop techniques that help mobile device users revisit and rectify past privacy decisions they may regret. By identifying the cognitive, affective, and environmental factors that lead to poor privacy choices, the researchers will create an expert-augmented prediction model to alert users to revisit only the most problematic past decisions, rather than overwhelming them with repetitive prompts. This research has broader societal impacts in improving mobile privacy practices for over 75% of Americans who own smartphones today. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
