-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP - AMCIS 2020 Track: Cognitive Research in IS Date: Mon, 6 Jan 2020 14:23:07 -0500 From: Emre Yetgin eyetgin@rider.edu To: aisworld@lists.aisnet.org

Dear Fellow Researchers,

We kindly encourage you to submit your completed research and Emergent Research Forum (ERF) papers to the “Cognitive Research in IS” track at AMCIS 2020, which will take place in Salt Lake City, UT between the 12th and 16th of August, 2020. Below is more information about our track and mini-tracks:

Track Description: Human cognition deals with how we know and make decisions, through processes including reasoning, perception, and judgment. The future of the Information Systems discipline will continue to involve human cognition as systems are increasingly used to meet social and business needs in innovative settings. Understanding human cognition is a critical component to the successful design, implementation, and use of information systems. The questions of interest relevant to this track focus on IS problems in terms of the processes of knowing and making decisions. This track solicits research investigating the widest variety of cognition, including but not limited to: situated, shared, social, distributed, and team cognition; group and individual decision support systems; creativity; cognitive aspects of business analytics and intelligence; problem-solving; knowledge-sharing & -management; cognitive perspectives on IS design, use, and development; human-computer interaction or human factors; and research methods to investigate cognitive issues in IS. We welcome qualitative, quantitative, experimental, and case study research and research-in-progress.

Minitrack 1: Human-Robot Interactions in Information Systems

Sangseok You (you@hec.fr mailto:you@hec.fr) Lionel Robert (lprobert@umich.edu mailto:lprobert@umich.edu)

This mini-track aims to enhance our understanding of human-robot interactions in an emerging area in Information Systems. This mini-track seeks to solicit submissions from a range of topics pertaining to the cognitive and behavioral aspects of interactions with robots and artificial intelligence (AI) and their corresponding outcomes. This includes empirical studies and conceptual frameworks which seek to theoretically advance our knowledge of the topic.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: • Promoting the performance of individuals, teams, and organizations working with robots • Adoption and appropriation of robots • Empirical studies examining cognitive, psychological, emotional, and social aspects in human-robot collaboration • Theoretical frameworks for human-robot interaction • Case studies on human-robot interaction • Design implications for robots in the workplace and home • Work practices which focused on human-robot collaboration • New methodological approaches to studying human-robot interactions

Minitrack 2: Exploring Human Cognition Surrounding Artificial Intelligence Systems

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning is occurring in a wide range of solutions and applications. While algorithms are necessary for the development of an artificially intelligent system, they are not sufficient. Understanding human interaction with the system is the key to develop an AI system that looks and behaves like humans. Although the field of AI is dominated by engineers and computer scientists, more research is needed to understand how humans respond to and interact with AI systems. One way to achieve this is by studying AI from the human cognitive perspective. By understanding the cognitive processes underlying our relationships with AI systems, we can construct and develop better theoretical models and provide design implications for AI systems. To help increase understanding about this topic, we invite submission of research focusing on the cognitive aspects involved in the interaction between humans and AI systems.

Minitrack 3: Creativity and Design Thinking in Cognitive IS Research

Jia Shen (jiashen@rider.edu mailto:jiashen@rider.edu)

This mini-track explores a broad spectrum of research at the intersection of people, technology, and problem solving from a cognitive perspective, and tackle issues related to creativity, design, and decision making. Topics of interest include the following:

• Creativity and design surrounding emerging technology, such as IoT, smart devices, virtual/augmented reality, autonomous vehicles, drones, 3D printing, etc. • Creativity and design in data analytics, including big data analytics, problem solving, and visualization tools. • Cognitive research in Service Design, including design thinking applied in design of interactive systems and services. • Creativity and team cognition, including design of collaboration systems from cognitive research perspectives. • Cognition and design of products and services in digital wellbeing, including user motivation, decision making, information overload, as well as design and evaluation of products and services affecting individual’s wellbeing in the digital age.
