Additional information

<20>CHI is a top conference in HCI (acceptance rate: 23%) and this paper received a Best Paper Honourable Mention. The paper introduces two new methods from clinical neuroscience that enable HCI researchers for the first time to objectively measure users’ sense of agency in their own actions when performing certain HCI tasks. We show that users’ sense of agency is higher when using their own palm as an interaction surface rather than a touch-screen. We also show that intelligent interfaces that assist the user can do so without affecting users’ sense of agency up to a certain point.
