Abstract

Most behaviour change interventions using technology (BCITs) try to persuade users to consciously choose to change their behaviour. Based on modern habit and Dual Process Theories (DPTs), we propose an alternative avenue of research in understanding how to use technology to directly target the nonconscious to achieve behaviour change.
