Better Behavior with Computing

Pervasive, Persuasive, Personalized, Positive Computing Laboratory (P4C Lab) is a human-computer interaction research group at the Kangwon National University, Republic of Korea. Our research aims to lead everyone to stay in good shape and have healthy mental by designing enjoyable and interactive services that leverage mobile/ubiquitous technologies, machine learning/artificial intelligence, and behavioral psychology/economics.

Pervasive

Our research artifact is implemented on mobile and ubiquitous devices to allow anyone to access it anywhere.

Persuasive

We primarily aims to bring about a change in the behavior and attitude of people.

Personalized

There is no "one-size-fits-all"; we want to convince people in a personalized way, tailored to their individual needs and preferences.

Positive

Last but not least, we try to ensure that we guide people towards positive outcomes.
