*Contextual Integrity in Theory and Empirical Application**/ 22^rd of June, 15:30 – 16:30 (BST)/**/ /*

*/Abstract:/*The theory of contextual integrity (CI) defines privacy as appropriate flow of personal information, answering the need for a conception of privacy that is meaningful to ordinary people, explains privacy's ethical claim, and underscores why privacy deserves protection through regulation and technology. In the 2010 book, I argued that CI meets all three benchmarks, while releasing privacy from the grips of one-dimensional definitions -- control over information about ourselves, stoppage of flow (secrecy), and fetishization of specific, “sensitive” attributes (e.g. identity, health.) Since then, our understanding of CI has been further shaped and informed by studies based on social scientific methods and, in turn, has informed and shaped them. My talk briefly describes key ideas defining contextual integrity, focusing on its interconnections with empirical social scientific studies of privacy/./

*The Promise of Activity Space Approaches: Urban/Rural Comparisons and Implications for Research on Context/ 23^th of June, 13:00 – 14:00 (BST)/**/ /*

*/Abstract/*: Characteristics of the places where we age have profound consequences for our ability to adapt to change and maintain independence. Novel social science theory and data collection can bring insight into the content and structure of older adult lives. The Chicago Health and Activity Space in Real Time (/CHART/) study provides one example of the use of novel technology to address fundamental questions in urban sociology and the life course. CHART employs innovative smartphone-based methods for the identification of older adults’ activity spaces. Analyses from 450 adults from ten Chicago neighborhoods who carried smartphones for GPS tracking and Ecological Momentary Assessments over seven days are used to assess, for instance, how the span, characteristics, and experiences of activity spaces vary across socioeconomic status and racial/ethnic groups. Applicability and extensions of this approach to rural contexts, with pilot data from the Appalachian region of North Carolina, will be described.

*/Bio/*: Kathleen Cagney was named the Director of the University of Michigan Institute for Social Research effective September 1, 2021.  Professor Cagney's work examines social inequality and its relationship to health with a focus on neighborhood, race, and aging, and the life course.  She has developed a series of papers on neighborhood social capital and its relationship to outcomes such as self-rated health, asthma prevalence, physical activity, and mortality during the 1995 Chicago heatwave.  She also focuses on the validity of such measures and the development of new neighborhood-based metrics that reflect the perceptions and experiences of older residents.  She holds research professorships in ISR's Survey Research Center and Population Studies Center.
