FOX: A Flexible and Heterogeneus Mixed User Model to Address Sustainable Behaviour in Smart Environments

Indeed, user diversity and categorisation in the context of sustainable behaviour was already studied by some scholars in recent literature. However, the complexity of the individual present some open challenges that still have to be further investigated. In this work, behavioural theories and user characterisation are analysed together to better understand the human factors when trying to in\ufb02uence sustainable lifestyles and actions. Then, theoretical frameworks are combined and mapped in a novel user meta-model, coined FOX, that classi\ufb01es the individual dynamically taking into account its heterogeneity and diversity. The dimensions involved in the FOX proposal are explained by describing the categorisation of each dimension. Besides, an example of the potential application of the model is exposed to better contextualise the work presented. Finally, controversial aspects and emerging ideas of the proposal are equally discussed throughout the paper as well as we discuss the use of FOX model to inform the design of behaviour change interventions related to sustainability.}, language = {en}, urldate = {2020-01-14}, booktitle = {Proceedings}, author = {Irizar-Arrieta, Ane and Retegi, Aiur and Casado-Mansilla, Diego and Laschke, Matthias and L\xf3pez-de-Ipi\xf1a, Diego}, month = nov, year = {2019}, keywords = {behavioural theories, human computer interaction, sustainable behaviour change, user modelling}, pages = {82} }']
