The Psychology of Technology.

How Algorithms Change What We Think, Want, and Do

By NGO TRUNG KIEN

The environment is no longer a stage on which behaviour occurs. It is a player: an adaptive system optimising against a model of the person inside it.

This book traces what that means for psychology, from the attention economy and the outsourced mind to manufactured belief, constructed preferences and the design principles that would let algorithmic systems preserve autonomy.

For students, researchers and professionals who want to understand how recommender systems and feeds shape behaviour.
