• Abstract: The design and evaluation of assisting technologies to support behavior change processes have become an essential topic within the field of human-computer interaction research in general and the field of immersive intervention technologies in particular. The mechanisms and success of behavior change techniques and interventions are broadly investigated in the field of psychology. However, it is not always easy to adapt these psychological findings to the context of immersive technologies. The lack of theoretical foundation also leads to a lack of explanation as to why and how immersive interventions support behavior change processes. The Behavioral Framework for immersive Technologies (BehaveFIT) addresses this lack by (1) presenting an intelligible categorization and condensation of psychological barriers and immersive features, by (2) suggesting a mapping that shows why and how immersive technologies can help to overcome barriers, and finally by (3) proposing a generic prediction path that enables a structured, theory-based approach to the development and evaluation of immersive interventions. These three steps explain how BehaveFIT can be used, and include guiding questions and one example for each step. Thus, the present paper contributes to guidance for immersive intervention design and evaluation, showing that immersive interventions support behavior change processes and explain and predict 'why' and 'how' immersive interventions can bridge the intention-behavior-gap.

  We explored how software that fulfils its requirements may have un-envisioned aftereffects with significant impacts. We considered three real-world case studies and engaged with literature from several disciplines to develop a conceptual framework. We found participant groups navigated the model with either a convergent or divergent intent. The study demonstrated potential for the conceptual framework to be used as a tool with implications for research and practice.

  This article aims to provide a theoretical account and corresponding paradigm for analysing how explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) influences people's behaviour and cognition. Two notable frameworks for thinking about behaviour change techniques are nudges - aimed at influencing behaviour - and boosts - aimed at fostering capability. It outlines a method for measuring XAI influence and argues for the benefits of understanding it for optimal, safe and ethical human-AI collaboration.

We present Counterfactual Explanations as Interventions in Latent Space (CEILS), a methodology to generate counterfactual explanations.
