KEEPING HUMANS IN THE AI LOOP
Self regulating sustained
attention helps keep
operators engaged over
long periods
We report results of a study that utilizes a neuroadap-
tative system to drive an interactive interface counter-
measure that allows users to self-regulate sustained
attention while performing an ecologically valid, long-
duration business logistics task. The results suggest
that providing a means to self-regulate sustained
attention has the potential to keep operators engaged
over long periods, and moderately increase on-task
performance while decreasing on-task error.

Abstract
NeuroIS is a field in Information Systems (IS) that
makes use of neuroscience and neurophysiological
tools and knowledge to better understand the
development, adoption, and impact of information and
communication technologies. The fact that NeuroIS
now exists for more than a decade motivated us to
comprehensively review the academic literature.
Investigation of the field’s development provides
insights into the status of NeuroIS, thereby
contributing to identity development in the NeuroIS
field. Based on a review of N=200 papers published in
55 journals and 13 conference proceedings in the
period 2008-2017, we addressed the following four
research questions: Which NeuroIS topics were
investigated? What kind of NeuroIS research was
published? How was the empirical NeuroIS research
conducted? Who published NeuroIS research? Based
on a discussion of the findings and their implications
for future research, which considers results of a recent
NeuroIS survey (N=60 NeuroIS scholars), we
conclude that today NeuroIS can be considered an
established research field in the IS discipline. However,
our review also indicates that further efforts are
necessary to advance the field, both from a theoretical
and methodological perspective.

Introduction
NeuroIS is a field in Information Systems (IS) that
makes use of tools and knowledge that are developed
and/or applied in neuroscience to better understand
the development, adoption, and impact of information
and communication technologies (Dimoka et al., 2012;
Dimoka, Pavlou, & Davis, 2007, 2011; Riedl, Banker
et al., 2010; Riedl, Davis, Banker, & Kenning, 2017).
Neuroscience is a field that deals with the study of the
brain and the nervous system, using measures of
neurophysiological processes such as functional
magnetic resonance imaging, fMRI, or
electroencephalography, EEG, or other tools related
to measurement of nervous system activity such as
electrodermal activity, EDA, or heart rate, HR (Society
for Neuroscience, 2019). It follows that NeuroIS
research comprises not only studies that apply
neurophysiological tools but also research that utilizes
theories and concepts from neuroscience to support
the four main goals of IS research: namely, to
describe, explain, and predict IS phenomena and to
design IS artifacts (Riedl & Léger, 2016). The
complementary aspect of neuroscience tools and
knowledge is neatly summarized by Riedl et al. (2018):
“The advent of neuroscience tools and theories allows
IS research to integrate biological factors, in particular

ABSTRACT
On the 10th anniversary of the NeuroIS field, we reflect on accomplishments but, more
importantly, on the future of the field. This commentary presents our thoughts on a future
NeuroIS research agenda with the potential for high impact societal contributions. Four key
areas for future information systems (IS) research are: (1) IS design, (2) IS use, (3) emotion
research, and (4) neuro-adaptive systems. We reflect on the challenges of each area and
provide specific research questions that serve as important directions for advancing the
NeuroIS field. The research agenda supports fellow researchers in planning, conducting,
publishing, and reviewing high impact studies that leverage the potential of neuroscience
knowledge and tools to further information systems research.

1. Introduction
At the 2007 ICIS (International Conference on
Information Systems), Dimoka, Pavlou, and Davis
(2007) coined the term “NeuroIS” and initiated –
together with other scholars who presented research at
the nexus of IS and neurobiology in the context of the
2007 ICIS conference – a new subfield by “applying
cognitive neuroscience theories, methods, and tools in
Information Systems (IS) research.” (For a description
of the genesis of NeuroIS, see Riedl and Léger (2016, pp.
73–74)). In NeuroIS studies, neurophysiological data
are typically collected in combination with self-
reported data to study existing systems’ use and impact,
as well as to inform the design of new systems; hence
contributing to both behavioural and design-oriented
IS research (Dimoka et al., 2012; Loos et al., 2010; Riedl
et al., 2010). In this new strategy of inquiry, researchers
use data from the human body to measure the effects of
human interactions with technology more directly;
revealing the mechanisms underlying human beha-
viour, particularly affective and other non-conscious
processes (Dimoka, Pavlou, & Davis, 2011; Riedl &
Léger, 2016; vom Brocke & Liang, 2014). The influence
of non-conscious processes on human beliefs, attitudes,
intentions, and behaviour is well documented in the
field of neuroscience where empirical research has
shown the effectiveness of physiological measurement
tools (e.g. Rugg et al., 1998). Even human self-awareness
has been shown to consist of non-conscious aspects
(Walla, Greiner, Duregger, Deecke, & Thurner, 2007)
and, thus, it seems logical to apply neuroscience tools to
investigate constructs relevant to IS research.
Early studies in NeuroIS demonstrate both beha-
vioural science and design science research objectives.
Dimoka (2010) investigates the concepts of trust and
distrust in IS. The study shows that trust and distrust
are associated with separate brain areas (trust with the
striatum and distrust with the amygdala and the insula),
challenging the previous understanding of trust and dis-
trust as the two ends of one construct. Based on neu-
roscience evidence, today it is an established fact that
trust and distrust are two separate constructs (Riedl &
Javor, 2012). To improve IS design, vom Brocke, Riedl,
and Léger (2013) identify three strategies with which to
apply neuroscience in design science research (DSR) by
adapting existing neuroscience theory to inform IS design
(without using neuroscience tools), using neuroscience
tools to evaluate IS design, and applying neuroscience
theory and tools to develop neuro-adaptive IS (i.e. sys-
tems that automatically adapt in real time based on users’
neurophysiological states to improve human-computer
interactions). For a concrete example, see Astor, Adam,
Jerčić, Schaaff, and Weinhardt (2013).
Over the past decade, the field of NeuroIS has devel-
oped rapidly and has made major achievements.
Foundational papers, such as those of Riedl et al. (2010)
and Dimoka et al. (2012), provide important conceptual
groundwork and help conceptualise NeuroIS as
a discipline. Annual events attract eager researchers,
such as the NeuroIS Retreat, which began in 2009 as an

Abstract Practitioners in many fields of human-computer interaction are now using physio-
logical data to measure different aspects of user experience. The dynamic nature of physio-
logical data offers a continuous window to the users and allows a better understanding of their
experience while interacting with a system. However, in order to be truly informative,
physiological signals need to be closely linked to users’ behaviors and interaction states. This
paper presents an analysis method that provides a direct visual interpretation of users’
physiological signals when interacting with an interface. The proposed physiological heatmap
tool uses eyetracking data along with physiological signals to identify regions where users are
experiencing different emotional and cognitive states with a higher frequency. The method was
evaluated in an experiment with 44 participants. Results show that physiological heatmaps are
able to identify emotionally significant regions within an interface better than standard gaze
heatmaps. Applications of the method to different fields of HCI research are also discussed.

Abstract. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, telework policies have required many user
experience (UX) labs to restrict their research activities to remote user testing. Automatic Facial
Expression Analysis (AFEA) is an accessible psychophysiological measurement that can be
easily implemented in remote user tests. However, to date, the literature on Human Computer
Interaction (HCI) has provided no guidelines for remote moderated user tests that collect facial
expression data and synchronize them with the state of a dynamic stimulus such as a webpage.
To address this research gap, this article offers guidelines for effective AFEA data collection that
are based on a methodology developed in a concrete research context and on the lessons learned
from applying it in four remote moderated user testing projects. Since researchers have less
control over test environment settings, we maintain that they should pay greater attention to
factors that can affect face detection andor emotion classification prior, during, and after remote
moderated user tests. Our study contributes to the development of methods for including
psychophysiological and neurophysiological measurements in remote user tests that offer
promising opportunities for information systems (IS) research, UX design, and even digital health
research.

1 Introduction
In Human Computer Interaction (HCI) research, conducting a user experience (UX)
study remotely can improve access to participants and provide an ecologically valid
environment for tests in remote environments such as a person’s living room [1].
Nonetheless, remote user tests are limited in terms of the equipment and measurement
tools that can be used and installed during this distributed setup, preventing scholars
from typically collecting psychophysiological data. Therefore, lab-based user tests are
still preferable as they allow researchers to enrich their understanding of the user’s
experience by triangulating traditional self-reported measures via survey scales and
interviews with psychophysiological measurements such as automatic facial expression
analysis (AFEA) [2, 3]. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the telework
policies that have been introduced as part of the public health response, user experience

Abstract. User experience (UX) research has been critically impacted by the
recent COVID-19 pandemic and the sanitary restrictions put in place.
Observational or perceptual studies can be adapted remotely with participants
using their own computer and internet access. However, studies based on the
unconscious and automatic physiological states of participants use
neurophysiological measurements that requires highly specific hardware.
Electrodermal activity (EDA) or electrocardiogram (ECG) based studies are
complex to transpose to a remote environment since researchers have no physical
contact with the participants. To address this concern, our research team
previously developed a remote instrument that can collect the EDA and the ECG
activity at the participants’ location through a moderated self-installation of
sensors. We developed a protocol for remote physiological data collection that
we pilot tested with 2 UX studies. After each study, we administered an open-
ended questionnaire regarding the full experience of remote data-collection from
both the moderator’s and the participant’s side. We collected 92 responses total
which provided us with a rich dataset that we analyzed through a thematic
analysis lens in order to uncover the success factors of remote
psychophysiological data collection. Operational support, moderator-participant
collaboration, individual characteristics, and technological capabilities clearly
emerged as drivers for success. This project aimed to develop a rigorous and
contextually relevant protocol for remote physiological data collection in UX
evaluations, train our research team on the developed protocol, and provide
guidance regarding remote physiological data collection activities.

1 Introduction
User research in human-centered design is critical because each step of the design
process revolves around the feedback received by potential users (Alvarez et al., 2019).
There are multiple ways to collect data related to the users’ experience during their
interaction with a technology, ranging from quantitative methods (e.g., clickstream

Abstract. Remote electroencephalography (EEG) studies offers the exciting op-
portunity to gather data within a participants’ home environment. However, re-
mote EEG data collection trades some internal validity for ecological validity.
When interacting with interfaces or other artifacts in remote settings, neurophys-
iological responses and behaviour may display distinct differences compared to
laboratory studies. We propose a methodological approach composed of several
recommendations and an iterative process framework to support this new avenue
of research. The framework was developed during workshops composed of a di-
verse panel and a literature review of relevant research to complement our dis-
coveries. We highlight and discuss the significant challenges associated with re-
mote EEG data collection, and propose recommendations. We introduce the con-
cept of self-applicability and propose a set of measures to guarantee good signal
quality. Additionally, we offer specific recommendations for research design,
training, and data collection strategies. We offer the iterative process framework
to provide support rigorous data collection, innovative research questions, and
the construction of large-scale datasets from remote EEG studies.

1 Introduction
The current global pandemic has necessitated developing novel methodologies to sus-
tain ongoing research programs relying on neurophysiological measurements, such as
in the field of NeuroIS and HCI [1, 2]. The critical requirement of social distancing to
reduce COVID-19 transmission severely complicates conventional neurophysiological
experimental methodologies where the researcher is responsible for the installation of
neuro-psychophysiological measurement tools on the research subject. A potential so-
lution to this problem is for researchers to conduct experiments remotely. This type of
solution involves using the Internet to connect with a distributed pool of experimental
subjects who participate from their homes, and who are not technically trained to use
