Self-attainable analytic tool and method for adaptive behavior modification

Abstract

A system and method for behavior modification through dynamic identification of behavior patterns, assistance in finding and implementing healthy alternatives to undesirable behavior patterns, preparation of dynamically variable user-specific programs, monitoring of current user activities, and presenting feedback and information to the user. The system and method further support incorporation of professional and other information into a user-specific package from which the user-specific program is determined, and synchronization and data integrity across the platforms of the system.

       34 : A method for collaborative behavior modification comprising the steps of:
 determining pre-defined electronic data;   collecting user-specific data in electronic format according to at least one pre-defined parameter, the user-specific data provided by a user and by at least one collaborative source;   automatically analyzing the user-specific data;   storing electronically the analyzed data, the user-specific data, the at least one pre-defined parameter, the pre-defined data and relationships among the user-specific data, the pre-defined parameters, and the pre-defined electronic data in a plurality of electronic user-specific packages;   automatically identifying at least one user-specific pattern related to at least one element in the plurality of user-specific packages;   automatically identifying electronic user-specific feedback related to the at least one user-specific pattern, the at least one pre-defined parameter, and at least one other element in the plurality of user-specific packages;   storing electronically the at least one user-specific pattern and the user-specific feedback in the plurality of user-specific packages;   defining executable computer code in the plurality of user-specific packages, the executable computer code being configured to perform at least one action on a second element in the plurality of user-specific packages in response to a change in a first element in the plurality of user-specific packages;   defining the at least one action to be an electronic relational database update, the electronic relational database update providing for updating the second element and elements related to the second element in response to a change in the first element;   receiving at least one update instruction for the first element of the plurality of user-specific packages, the at least one update instruction provided by the at least one collaborative source;   updating the first element according to the at least one update instruction, thereby invoking the executable code, thereby updating the second element, thereby updating the plurality of user-specific packages; and   presenting the electronic user-specific feedback to the user, the user-specific feedback capable of assisting the user in behavior modification.   
   
   
       35 : The method as defined in  claim 34  further comprising the step of:
 defining the first element to be the at least one user-specific pattern;   defining the second element to be the electronic user-specific feedback; and   updating the at least one user-specific pattern, thereby invoking the executable code, thereby updating the electronic user-specific feedback and elements related to the user-specific feedback.   
   
   
       36 : The method as defined in  claim 34  further comprising the steps of:
 defining a group database having at least one group database element in common with the plurality of user-specific packages;   associating the group database with a user data collection/analysis device and with a professional data collection/analysis device;   accepting at least one update request to the group database;   defining the first element to be the at least one group database element;   defining the second element to be a user-specific package element from the plurality of user-specific packages; and   updating the at least one group database element according to the at least one update request, thereby invoking the executable code, thereby updating the user-specific package element, thereby updating the plurality of user-specific packages;   wherein the plurality of user-specific packages is synchronized between the user data collection/analysis device and the professional data collection/analysis device.   
   
   
       37 : The method as defined in  claim 34  further comprising the steps of:
 defining an electronic general database having at least one general database element in common with the plurality of user-specific packages, the plurality of user-specific packages being accessible from a user data collection/analysis device;   associating the electronic general database with an expert data collection/analysis device;   accepting at least one update request to the at least one general database element;   defining the first element to be the at least one general database element;   defining the second element to be a user-specific package element from the plurality of user-specific packages; and   updating the at least one general database element according to the at least one update request, thereby invoking the executable code, thereby updating the user-specific package element, thereby updating the plurality of user-specific packages;   wherein the plurality of user-specific packages is synchronized between the user data collection/analysis device and the expert data collection/analysis device.
