Smart Environments & Mental Health
While technology has always been a major component of the history of human evolution, the more tech-driven the sociocultural environments though the bigger the challenges. From stones and sticks to spaceships, technology aims at solving human issues promising prosperity, safety, health and sustainability.
Research however shows that rapid digitalisation and technology can lead to greater inequality, not only in terms of its access per se but also algorithm bias, rising authoritarianism and rampant misinformation propagating destructive biases and fears as the psychological bases of prejudice and political conservatism. |
This is a problem increasingly becoming evident in diverse fields of society: education; autonomous systems; health care; fair economic distribution and decisions, and law, among others.
Our research goal is to inform the design and construction of sustainable & human-friendly digital ecosystems, sensitive to human multisensory experience, emotions, concerns & values. This includes identifying and predicting opportunities for action in terms of decentralized & collaborative AI and preventive mental health. |
