Call for Papers
Persuasive Technology: Enhancing Sustainability and Health
The Sixth International Conference on Persuasive Technology will be held at Ohio State University (Columbus, OH, USA) from June 2-5th, 2011.
The 2011 conference program will build on themes from earlier conferences. Papers on research, theory, and methods from a wide range of disciplines are invited for submission. The conference is sponsored by the Department of Marketing and Logistics, School of Communication, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Department of Psychology, Center for Resilience, and the Center for Automotive Research at Ohio State University.
An interdisciplinary Doctoral Seminar, sponsored by the Association for Consumer Research and the Society for Consumer Psychology, will follow the conference.
An overall goal of the conference program, conference activities, and subsequent publications will be the development and enhancement of global interdisciplinary connections on projects related to social science theories and the use of technology to reduce energy consumption, enhance pro-environmental behaviors (e.g., product choice, resource sharing, transportation choices, etc.) as well as to enhance exercise, healthy food choices, and medication adherence (as a few examples).
Selected papers from the conference may be published in special issues of high quality journal outlets.
Conference Co-chairs are Curtis P. Haugtvedt and David Ewoldsen
Full length papers (preferred), extended abstracts, or special session proposals should be submitted to Haugtvedt.1@osu.edu by March 5th, 2011. All submissions will be peer reviewed.
