The rapid evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI), pervasive computing, social platforms, and immersive technologies is transforming how people work, learn, communicate, and interact with digital systems. Understanding the human factors of these technologies has become increasingly important for designing experiences that are effective, responsible, trustworthy, and supportive of user wellbeing.
The International Workshop on Pervasive Digital Human Factors (PDF) brings together researchers and practitioners from Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), AI, Digital Health, Social Computing, and Ubiquitous Computing to explore how emerging technologies influence human behavior, cognition, wellbeing, and autonomy. The workshop welcomes theoretical, empirical, design-oriented, and applied research that advances the development of human-centered and ethically designed digital ecosystems.
