Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • Health recommender systems (HRSs) leverage user behavior to promote healthier choices.
  • These systems aim to motivate users towards behavior change through personalized information.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review HRSs designed for nonmedical professionals (laypersons).
  • To understand the current state-of-the-art, identify trends, and pinpoint research gaps in HRS implementation.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic literature review following PRISMA guidelines.
  • Analysis of 73 studies reporting HRS implementation and evaluation for laypersons.

Main Results:

  • Recommended items span lifestyle, nutrition, general health, and specific conditions.
  • Most HRSs employ hybrid algorithms; evaluations range from algorithmic metrics to real-world trials.
  • Five reporting guidelines were derived to standardize future HRS research.

Conclusions:

  • HRSs offer substantial potential for guiding health actions.
  • A proposed reference frame with five design guidelines aims to advance HRS research.
