Trust in technology is a topic of growing importance in Human–Computer Interaction due to the growing impact of systems on daily lives. However, limited attention has been paid to how one’s national culture shapes their propensity to trust. This study addresses an existing gap in trust in technology research by advancing towards a more accurate too...

AI is increasingly present in creative industries, including industrial design. However, there is insufficient understanding of professionals’ perceptions of such tools. This knowledge is crucial for fostering adoption and trust in technology. The article explores designers’ perceptions and trust in these tools and examines the possibilities for in...

This study is the initial step of a research project investigating how different factors affect individuals’ propensity to trust in high-risk Artificial Intelligence (AI).

High-risk artificial intelligence (AI) are systems that can endanger the fundamental rights of individuals. Due to their complex characteristics, users often wrongly perceive their risks, trusting too little or too much. To further understand trust from the users’ perspective, we investigate what factors affect their propensity to trust Facial Reco...

User trust in Artificial Intelligence (AI) enabled systems has been increasingly recognized and proven as a key element to fostering adoption. It has been suggested that AI-enabled systems must go beyond technical-centric approaches and towards embracing a more human centric approach, a core principle of the human-computer interaction (HCI) field....

This research presents a cross-cultural investigation of users’ trust in technology to map how different factors can influence their propensity to trust. The study focuses on three Portuguese-speaking countries, Brazil, Mozambique, and Portugal, aiming to provide results that are not tied to a specific context while also focusing on underexplored p...

This study presents exploratory research on how to measure perceived Trust in technology across culture. Builds from a validated Human-Computer Trust Model (HCTM) questionnaire (12 items) to efficiently measure users’ predispositions to trust a technological artefact (e.g. WhatsApp). This approach aims to provide results that are not tied to a spec...
