Special Issue on Psychology-Driven and Human-Centered Approaches to Interaction Design Research
This special issue presents the latest research in interaction design, merging psychological principles with human-centered methodologies. Understanding the psychological impact of design choices is vital in our tech-driven world. Emphasizing the fusion of psychology and user-centric design enhances experiences and promotes inclusive, sustainable solutions. Contributions challenging conventions and offering fresh perspectives on transdisciplinary research, practice, and education are encouraged. We seek to explore the synergy between human-computer interaction, cognitive science, engineering psychology, and design. Designs should be functional, visually appealing, and informed by human behavior insights.

Special issue information:
This special issue presents the latest research in interaction design that seamlessly incorporates psychological principles with human-centered methodologies. As technology becomes increasingly integrated into our daily lives, it is crucial to understand the psychological effects of our design decisions.
The special issue highlights the influence of merging psychological insights and prioritizing human needs within design processes. These approaches not only enhance user experiences but also foster more effective, inclusive and sustainable technological solutions across various fields.
We invite contributions that challenge traditional methods and introduce new perspectives on transdisciplinary research, practice and teaching. We encourage contributors to explore the synergy between human-computer interaction, cognitive science, engineering psychology, and design disciplines. Our focus is on designs that are both functional and visually appealing, informed by an understanding of human behavior and mental processes.
We hope this issue will serve as a platform to inspire researchers, practitioner and educators to critically engage with and shape the future of interaction design research.
