To check whether the current literature review is sufficient or do we need to add more papers?

<rashmi> Mental Health Literature Review Responses (Google Sheet)

Jan: Jan thinks she sent a document to Lisa with several articles on mental health as it relates to high stakes assessment. She will look for that email and if she can't find it, she will reach out to the researcher who completed that and get a copy of the Word doc.
... Can we add the Chaos Machine by Max Fisher

Rashi: We have a recommendation that social media should have time limits, so it sounds like the Chaos Machine supports that.

Jan: There's a documentary called "The Social Dilemma" that covers social media effects on mental health.

John: We may need to narrow the scope of our research to people with cognitive and learning disabilities specifically within the context of social media

Rashi: To clarify, do we need to narrow the social media topic to cognitive and learning disability research?

John: There may be broader concerns on mental health and social media, but we may need to narrow the scope so that we look at the effects on people with learning & cognitive disabilities.

Rashmi: With the issue paper, we are looking at mental health with social media for aging populations and to girls who are addicted to social media.

John: There are different legal implications for children vs. adults, so when we are looking at standards, we need to be aware of this and potentially narrow the scope to populations that the W3C can address through standards
... Adults with cognitive disabilities who are being scammed - this is a huge issue that we need to address.

Rashmi: This also applies to big data

Jan: Maybe we can tag the existing list of articles into categories?

Rashmi: This group is for mental health conditions, rather it's for a younger population or an older population, but under that, we can subcategorize and add some tags.
... some articles are for banking, some for social media, etc.

John: Do we have a strong definition of what we mean by mental health?

<rashmi> https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/task-forces/coga/wiki/Subgroups/Mental_Health

Rashmi: The purpose of the subgroup is to address how people with existing mental health conditions are affected and how mental health conditions may be caused by various types of technologies and/or the design of various platforms

John: Banks have to deal with scam issues all the time

Rearranging data in Analysis page to make it more comprehensive.

Rashmi: I reorganized the "Temporary Proposed Pattern for Content Usable" document. I reorganized the tables and added more columns.
... It would be helpful to have members of the subgroup review the issue papers that are in draft mode and add comments.

Rashni: The purpose of the issue paper is to provide a proposal to the personalization task force to encourage them to include an option to personalize warnings / triggers for people with mental health issues.

Rashmi: There is research coming out that trigger warnings are causing anxiety
