Environmental psychology, traditionally concerned with the interactions between humans and their physical surroundings, has increasingly embraced technological influence, reflected in the innovation and adaptation across various settings like homes, workplaces, and urban spaces. Importantly, the introduction of Artificial Intelligence (AI) presents fresh theoretical and practical challenges to this field. It sparks a critical interdisciplinary discourse that melds technology with social and environmental dimensions, evidenced by transformations in everyday interactions in both real and virtual realms.
This Research Topic aims to delve into modern developments in environmental psychology, probing how AI and other smart technologies reshape traditional and emerging spheres of this discipline. By incorporating experimental methods such as photo-voice interviews and qualitative narratives, the goal is to shed light on the evolving relationship between human behavior and environmental psychology. In particular, the research will explore how these innovations influence fields like consumer behavior, health management, urban planning, and technology interaction, furthering methodological and content-bound knowledge of traditional and cutting-edge issues.
To gather further insights into this multidisciplinary nexus, we welcome articles addressing, but not limited to, the following themes:
o Integration of AI with environmental psychology
o Influence of technological surroundings on social behaviors
o Methodological innovations in data collection
o Impact of technology on traditional environmental psychology areas such as healthcare and urban design
o Theoretical advancements in understanding the socio-physical interactions
o Effectiveness of environmental design incorporating user experience technology
This Research Topic welcomes Original Research, Reviews, Mini Reviews, Methods, Theory and Hypothesis, Opinions, Perspectives, Conceptual analysis, Brief research report and any other article type under the Frontiers' profile.
