Persuasive technology for health and wellness: State-of-the-art and emerging trends

“…Physical activity has attracted the most research interest, making up 38% of all the reviewed studies, followed by healthy eating with a total of 25%.

Personalizing persuasive technologies: Explicit and implicit personalization using persuasion profiles

“…It is worthwhile to note the current state of this research, and contemporary attempts in similar directions. Persuasion profiles have by now been used not only to reduce snacking and to improve the effectiveness of emails as described above, but have also been used to (a) motivate people to lead a healthier lifestyle (Sakai et al, 2011), and (b) increase the impact of online commerce (Kaptein, 2011). This latter work is preceded by several personalization attempts in this domain, most noticeably by Ansari and Mela (2005) and by Hauser et al (2009).…”

Adaptive persuasive messaging to increase service retention: using persuasion profiles to increase the effectiveness of email reminders

“…Next, because of the large individual differences that have been found in people's responses to these persuasion principles, we try to adapt the principle that is used in the docking reminder for a specific user to the behavioral response-a successful docking event-by that user. We thus develop an adaptive persuasive system (see also [21,36]). In the remainder of this article, we first describe the requirements of adaptive persuasive systems and their possible implementations.…”

“…To be able to build adaptive persuasive systems, designers should create systems that are capable of identifying their users, representing different social influence strategies, and measuring their effectiveness (cf. [22,27,36]. We detail each of these requirements.…”

“…This profile, in prior work called a Persuasion Profile [23] can, via a decision rule like the one specified above, be used for persuasion principle selection for individual users. While initial attempts to create these types of systems have already been reported on in the literature [26,36], no large-scale evaluations of this idea of using persuasion profiles to increase the effectiveness of persuasive technologies exist to date.…”
