Understanding and using experiences of social care to guide service improvements: translating a co-design approach from health to social care.
Health Soc Care Deliv Res
August 2024
Health Services Research Unit, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, UK.
Background: Local authorities need to find new ways of collecting and using data on social care users' experiences to improve service design and quality. Here we draw on and adapt an approach used in the healthcare improvement field, accelerated experience-based co-design, to see if it can be translated to social care. We use loneliness support as our exemplar.

Article Synopsis
- Affective biases influence how we recall past events, shaping our memory formation and retrieval, especially during value-based decision-making (VBDM).
- In a study using a Wheel of Fortune game, participants exhibited a positive memory bias, recalling higher probability rewards more favorably after experiencing wins than losses.
- Pupil responses during decisions indicated heightened arousal for higher-value choices, particularly when linked to positively encoded memories, showcasing the connection between emotions and decision-making processes.

Background: Cognitive models of mood disorders emphasize a causal role of negative affective biases in depression. Computational work suggests that these biases may stem from a belief that negative events have a higher information content than positive events, resulting in preferential processing of and learning from negative outcomes. Learning biases therefore represent a promising target for therapeutic interventions.

Subjective well-being or happiness is often associated with wealth. Recent studies suggest that momentary happiness is associated with reward prediction error, the difference between experienced and predicted reward, a key component of adaptive behaviour. We tested subjects in a reinforcement learning task in which reward size and probability were uncorrelated, allowing us to dissociate between the contributions of reward and learning to happiness.
