Persuasive Systems Design: Key Issues, Process Model, and System Features
TLDR
The process of designing and evaluating persuasive systems is discussed and what kind of content and software functionality may be found in the final product is described, as well as seven underlying postulates behind persuasive systems and ways to analyze the persuasion context.Abstract:
A growing number of information technology systems and services are being developed to change users’ attitudes or behavior or both. Despite the fact that attitudinal theories from social psychology have been quite extensively applied to the study of user intentions and behavior, these theories have been developed for predicting user acceptance of the information technology rather than for providing systematic analysis and design methods for developing persuasive software solutions. This article is conceptual and theory-creating by its nature, suggesting a framework for Persuasive Systems Design (PSD). It discusses the process of designing and evaluating persuasive systems and describes what kind of content and software functionality may be found in the final product. It also highlights seven underlying postulates behind persuasive systems and ways to analyze the persuasion context (the intent, the event, and the strategy). The article further lists 28 design principles for persuasive system content and functionality, describing example software requirements and implementations. Some of the design principles are novel. Moreover, a new categorization of these principles is proposed, consisting of the primary task, dialogue, system credibility, and social support categories.read more

Persuasive System Design Does Matter: A Systematic Review of Adherence to Web-Based Interventions
TL;DR: Using intervention characteristics and persuasive technology elements, a substantial amount of variance in adherence can be explained and can be used to make an informed decision about how to design a web-based intervention to which patients are more likely to adhere.

Perceived Usefulness, Perceived Ease of Use, and User
TL;DR: Regression analyses suggest that perceived ease of use may actually be a causal antecdent to perceived usefulness, as opposed to a parallel, direct determinant of system usage.
