Journal Article
Li, J., & Ensafjoo, M. (2024). It’s Not UAV, It’s Me: Demographic and Self-Other Effects in Public Acceptance of a Socially Assistive Aerial Manipulation System for Fatigue Management. International Journal of Social Robotics, 16, 227-243. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12369-023-01072-3

Modern developments in speech-enabled drones and aerial manipulation systems (AMS) enable drones to have social interactions with people, which is important for therapeutic applications involving flight and above-eye-level monitoring in people’s home...

Weakness exploitation: Predicting socially communicative devices as a successor to internet-based graphical user interfaces (2023)
Journal Article
Li, J., & Chignell, M. (2023). Weakness exploitation: Predicting socially communicative devices as a successor to internet-based graphical user interfaces. Explorations in Media Ecology, 22(1), 49–74. https://doi.org/10.1386/eme_00150_1

Existing theories of technology transitions cannot predict what new technological paradigm will supplant the currently leading, internet-enabled graphical user interface paradigm. This article introduces a preliminary approach (‘weakness exploitation...

The Evolution of HCI and Human Factors: Integrating Human and Artificial Intelligence (2023)
Journal Article
Chignell, M., Wang, L., Zare, A., & Li, J. (2023). The Evolution of HCI and Human Factors: Integrating Human and Artificial Intelligence. ACM transactions on computer-human interaction, 30(2), Article 17. https://doi.org/10.1145/3557891

We review HCI history from both the perspective of its 1980s split with human factors and its nature as a discipline. We then revisit human augmentation as an alternative to user friendliness that seems particularly relevant in the areas of inclusive...

Fleets on the streets: How number, affiliation and purpose of shared-lane automated vehicle convoys influence public perception and blame (2023)
Journal Article
Gilbert, T. K., Qu, N. Z., Ju, W., & Li, J. (2023). Fleets on the streets: How number, affiliation and purpose of shared-lane automated vehicle convoys influence public perception and blame. Transportation Research Part F: Traffic Psychology and Behaviour, 93, 294-308. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.trf.2023.01.013

Automated vehicles (AVs) may have broad uses in society, but some applications may be more acceptable than others. Determining contexts in which AVs can acceptably operate is a substantial challenge for policy makers. In an online YouGov survey (N =...
