Intentional Forgetting of Everyday Work Behavior - Assessment, Formalization, and Integration into Interactive Systems

这个项目的重点是在工作环境中忘记不想要的习惯。我们将研究哪些情况有助于员工真正放弃他们认为功能失调的习惯，他们希望摆脱的习惯，以及有说服力的系统是否可以支持这一过程。在第二个项目阶段，我们将制定设计指南，以设计和开发支持忘记不正常习惯的说服性系统。我们将为这样一个有说服力的系统开发一个原型，并随后从概念和经验的角度审查一个概括。在一系列(准)试验性实地研究中，我们将检验自我调节过程和劝说系统的使用是否有助于功能失调习惯行为的短期和长期改变。我们将考察支持习惯行为改变的组织背景因素。

This project focuses on forgetting of unwanted habits in the job context. We shall examine the circumstances that help employees to actually abandon habits that they regard as dysfunctional and they wish to get rid of, and if persuasive systems can support this process. In the second project phase we shall develop design guidelines for the design and development of persuasive systems that support the forgetting of dysfunctional habits. We shall develop a prototype for such a persuasive system and shall subsequently examine a generalization, both from a conceptual and an empirical perspective. In a sequence of (quasi-)experimental field studies we shall test if self-regulatory processes and the use of the persuasive system can contribute to a short-term as well a longer-term change of dysfunctional habitual behavior. We will examine organizational context factors that support the change of habitual behavior.
