About
Judith M.F. Masthoff is a leading researcher in human-computer interaction, with a particular focus on the design and evaluation of social robots and intelligent user interfaces. Her work bridges technology and human well-being, exploring how adaptive systems can support health, education, and everyday decision-making. A key contribution is her pioneering research on co-designing social robots for child health care, as exemplified by her widely cited 2023 paper (15 citations), which demonstrates how participatory methods can ensure that robotic behaviors meet the real needs of children and clinicians. Beyond this, Masthoff has made foundational advances in user modeling and persuasive technology, particularly in understanding how to tailor feedback and recommendations to promote behavior change. Her work has been recognized for its practical impact, influencing the development of more empathetic and effective interactive systems. With over a decade of influential publications, Masthoff’s research continues to shape how we design technology that is not only intelligent but also socially aware and ethically grounded.
