The 9th biennial conference on Environmental Psychology aims to bring together people interested in the field of environmental psychology to meet, share experiences, present research, and discuss ideas with regard to the state of the art in environment and behavior research.
Key themes of the conference include, but are not limited to, the built and natural environment, conservation behavior and sustainability, environmental perception and decision making, environmental risks and stress, methods and theories in environment-behavior research, proxemics, restoration and health. We encourage, in particular, theoretical and empirical contributions addressing this year’s conference theme Environment 2.0.
Environment 2.0. The environments we live and work in are becoming increasingly technological. This is reflected in this year’s special conference theme.
Environment2.0. We invite participants to reflect on environmental psychology’s status with regard to technological innovations. Are we as environmental psychologists sufficiently aware of and involved in developments such as, ambient intelligence, virtual reality, persuasive technology, lighting technology for wellbeing and performance, and location aware services on mobile phones and the Internet?
