Avatars to Influence Behaviour

As we journey through life, aging is an inevitable part of our existence. However, the way we approach and perceive this natural process can greatly impact our overall well-being. At PosAge, our mission is to unlock the secrets of positive aging and wellness by delving into the psychological aspects that play a crucial role in our health and happiness as we grow older.

We have included a list of alternative research that also focuses on Avatars and how they can be employed to influence behaviour in users. These links look at how the embodiment of a certain Avatar could change how we interact and even how we perceive ourselves.
