Health and fitness apps collect various personal information
including name, email address, age, height, weight, and in some
cases, detailed health information. When using these apps, many
users trustfully log everything from diet to sleep patterns.
However, by sharing such personal information, end-users may make
themselves targets to misuse of this information by unknown third
parties, such as insurance companies. Despite the important role of
informed consent in the creation of health and fitness
applications, the intersection of ethics and information sharing is
understudied and is an often-ignored topic during the creation of
mobile applications. Privacy Concerns Surrounding Personal
Information Sharing on Health and Fitness Mobile Apps is a key
reference source that provides research on the dangers of sharing
personal information on health and wellness apps, as well as how
such information can be used by employers, insurance companies,
advertisers, and other third parties. While highlighting topics
such as data ethics, privacy management, and information sharing,
this publication explores the intersection of ethics and privacy
using various quantitative, qualitative, and critical analytic
approaches. It is ideally designed for policymakers, software
developers, mobile app designers, legal specialists, privacy
analysts, data scientists, researchers, academicians, and
upper-level students.

The connection of interfaith and intercultural understanding stems
from a conceptual foundation on the dialogue between religions and
cultures. These types of conversation are essential for the
clarification and reflection of practical opportunities and
challenges that these exchanges are facing. New Media and
Communication Across Religions and Cultures offers a unique
opportunity in both the social sciences, humanities, and
communication fields to provide concrete concepts and notions in
the areas of inter-religious and inter-cultural dialogue. By
exploring this empirical research of relevant experiences, this
book is important for researchers, practitioners, and students in
varied fields of philosophy, sociology, cultural studies, media
students, law, and more.
Medical Communication in Clinical Contexts is an edited collection
designed to show and tell how patient-centered medical
communication can be performed in clinical contexts. Medical
Communication in Clinical Contexts contains three primary themes:
An integrated view of health communication in applied clinical
contexts. An appreciation of medical communication as a
multidisciplinary, yet specialized, field of study. Medical
communication as simultaneously social scientific, humanistic, and
professional in orientation. Medical Communication in Clinical
Contexts is divided into four sections aimed at demonstrating the
three primary themes. The first and second sections primarily are
concerned with using theories and methods to examine acts of
communication to understand when medical communication has been
patient-centered and when it has needed improvement. The third and
fourth sections focus on theoretically and methodologically
informed communication interventions that seek to promote
patient-centered medical communication. Medical Communication in
Clinical Contexts demonstrates the power of communication to create
or interfere with the creation of a patient-centered medical
communication environment. The research interventions and applied
projects can serve as models for health communication
practitioners, medical communication scholars, and clinical
practitioners to improve their understanding of theories, methods,
and models for promoting patient-centered medical communication.
Health Communication and Mass Media is a much-needed resource for
those with a professional or academic interest in the field of
health communication. The chapters engage and expand upon
significant theories informing efforts at mediated health
communication and demonstrate the practical utility of these
theories in on-going or completed projects. They consider how to
balance the ethical and efficacy demands of mediated health
communication efforts, and discuss both traditional media and
communication systems and new web-based and mobile media. The
book's treatment is broad, reflecting the topical and
methodological diversity in the field. It offers an integrated
approach to communication theory and application. Readers will be
able to appreciate the ways that theory shapes health communication
applications and how those applications inform the further
construction of theory. They will find practical examples of
mediated health communication that can serve as models for their
own efforts. While the book serves as an introduction to mediated
health communication for students, professionals, and practitioners
with limited experience, researchers and advanced practitioners
will also appreciate the exemplars and theoretical insights offered
by the chapter authors. This book will be of interest to anyone
involved in health communication programs or more generally with
communication and allied studies, as well as to those in the health
professions and their related fields.
