PERSUASIVE 07 – The Second International Conference on Persuasive Technology
26-27 April 2007, Stanford University, Palo Alto, California
Can a web site persuade you to be politically active? Can a mobile phone motivate you to exercise? Does instant feedback on gasoline use change how people drive? Do online rating systems inspire people to behave better online?
PERSUASIVE 07 will focus on how digital technology can motivate and influence people. This event will bring together researchers, designers, and developers interested in computers designed to change human attitudes and behaviors in positive ways.
Key themes of PERSUASIVE 07 include health, education, sustainability, productivity, social relationships, trust, credibility, ethics and more. Technologies of interest include web sites, mobile phones, video games, and electronic devices, among others.
Call for Papers
Academics and practitioners are invited to submit their work for presentation at PERSUASIVE 07 at Stanford University, Palo Alto, California on April 26-27, 2007.
The conference welcomes original papers based on empirical studies of technologies designed to change attitudes or behaviors. Also welcome are papers that advance theoretical understanding of persuasion dynamics, methods for research, and related ethical issues. We also seek case studies of the highest quality that give insight into the design or distribution of persuasive technology products. We will select papers using a blind peer-review process.
Submission Deadline: December 15, 2006.
