Call for Papers


We are excited to invite submissions for the Special Issue of the International Journal of Human-Computer Studies (IJHCS) entitled “User Perspectives in Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence“ (VSI:HCAI).


Guest Editors:


** Special Issue Focus **

This special issue focuses on the rapidly evolving field of Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HCAI), which aims to shift the development and application of AI technologies towards enhancing human capabilities while ensuring systems are transparent, equitable, privacy-conscious, and under human control. It seeks to unite a wide range of stakeholders, including researchers, developers, business leaders, policymakers, and end-users, to examine AI's multifaceted impacts from a user-centric viewpoint. The issue will delve into the benefits and challenges of automated decision-making systems, with a particular emphasis on reliability, safety, and trustworthiness, and how these factors influence user interactions and experiences with AI. The goal is to foster a comprehensive discourse on creating AI systems that are not only technologically advanced but also ethically and socially attuned to user needs, encouraging submissions that assess user perception in real-world scenarios beyond algorithmic and model-centric evaluations. Topics of interest include system design and user interaction, ethical and societal considerations, and technological advancements aimed at improving user experience. This includes the design and evaluation of reliable and safe AI systems, empirical studies on HCAI's real-world impact, human-in-the-loop methodologies, innovative design and assessment methods, adaptive user interfaces, approaches to mitigate bias, privacy preservation, the impact of regulations, and the development of user-adaptive and explainable AI systems across various sectors. The issue invites original research, case studies, and review articles to promote cross-disciplinary dialogue and address the complex challenges and opportunities in HCAI.


We invite submissions on a range of topics:



We welcome original research papers, case studies, and review articles contributing to the knowledge in these areas.


** Submission Guidelines **

Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished papers. All submissions will be peer-reviewed and judged on originality, significance, quality, and relevance to the special issue topics of interest.

Submitted papers should not have appeared in or be under consideration for another journal.
