Persuasive 2012: Design for health and safety

Persuasive 2012

The 7th International Conference on Persuasive Technology

June 6–8, 2012

Linköping, SWEDEN

Persuasive Technology is a stimulating interdisciplinary research field that focuses on how interactive technologies and services can be designed to change people’s attitudes and behaviors. Influenced by areas such as classic rhetoric, social psychology and ubiquitous computing, researchers in this field are typically designing applications for domains such as health, business, safety, and education.

The 7th International Conference on Persuasive Technology (Persuasive 2012) will build on the successful prior conferences held at Eindhoven, Stanford, Oulu, Copenhagen, Claremont, and Columbus. The conference will feature the latest insights into how mobile and internet-based applications such as mobile games and social networking sites can be designed to influence behaviors, thoughts, and feelings. The conference is expected to gather researchers, practitioners, and students who are interested in networking, presenting, discussing and reflecting on central themes associated with persuasive computing and design.

PERSUASIVE 2010 - The Fifth International Conference on Persuasive Technology

DESIGN FOR CHANGE
JUNE 7-9, 2010
Copenhagen, Denmark

Hosted by the Royal School of Library and Information Science in collaboration with Aalborg University and Oulu University.
 
Persuasive Technology is a young and vibrant research field, focusing on how interactive technologies may be used to create, maintain, or change human thought and behavior. Combining well-established research methods and traditions from epistemology, rhetoric, social psychology, communication, and information science with cutting-edge technologies brings about a special flavor characteristic of the Persuasive Technology conferences.
 
The Copenhagen conference will feature new insights, research and practice into how the development and use of technology may change and influence our behavior, thoughts, feelings and society at large. The conference will gather people interested in networking, presenting, discussing and reflecting on central themes associated with persuasive design and technology.
