Abstract
The workshop aims to discuss open problems, challenges, and innovative research approaches in the area of persuasive and behavior change recommender systems, that is, recommender systems aimed at modifying people's habits and behavior. Some questions that motivate this workshop are: What kind of theory is more suitable to inform the design of behavior change recommender systems? What kind of personal data (e.g., coming from environmental sensors, wearable devices, etc.) should we use to design behavior change recommendations? How should we deliver them (i.e., what kind of communication channels and interfaces should we use)? What kind of strategies should we implement to design timely and contextualized recommendations? How can we support the user's motivation to adhere to the recommendations provided? How can we “persuade” users in the long term?

Recommendations
Naïve filterbots for robust cold-start recommendations
KDD '06: Proceedings of the 12th ACM SIGKDD international conference on Knowledge discovery and data miningThe goal of a recommender system is to suggest items of interest to a user based on historical behavior of a community of users. Given detailed enough history, item-based collaborative filtering (CF) often performs as well or better than almost any ...
Recommendations as Challenges: Estimating Required Effort and User Ability for Health Behavior Change Recommendations
IUI '22: Proceedings of the 27th International Conference on Intelligent User InterfacesRecommender Systems use implicit and explicit user feedback to recommend desired products or items online. When the recommendation item is a task or behavior change activity, several variables, such as the difficulty of the task and users’ ability to ...
Are All Rejected Recommendations Equally Bad?: Towards Analysing Rejected Recommendations
UMAP '19: Proceedings of the 27th ACM Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation and PersonalizationWhen evaluating algorithms that recommend a list of relevant items to a user, it is common to use metrics such as precision to measure the system accuracy. When computing precision, one computes the number of items that were selected by the user among ...
