The XXII edition of the International conference on Human-Computer Interaction (Interacción 2022) will take place in Teruel (Aragón, Spain), at the campus of the University of Zaragoza, from September 7th to 9th, 2022, under the auspices of the Human-Computer Interaction Association (AIPO), the support of the Spanish chapter of ACM SIGCHI (CHISPA) and the organization of the AffectiveLab and EduQTech research groups of the University of Zaragoza. The congress has been organized in face-to-face mode.

The main objective of Interacción 2022 is to bring together researchers, students and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) professionals, both from academia and industry, in order to promote the presentation of innovative proposals, exchange of ideas and discussion. Interacción 2022 takes a multi-disciplinary approach to the HCI discipline, so that it seeks to attract those working in computer science, but also in other disciplines. This includes the line of interactive art, which received preferential interest in Interaction 20/21 and is to be maintained.

Topics

Contributions can address any topic related to the HCI discipline, in a broad sense, considering its multidisciplinary nature. Thus, contributions on user experience, accessibility, virtual and augmented reality, human-robot interaction, hardware for interaction, interactive art, HCI psychology, HCI teaching, HCI and rehabilitation, etc. will be welcome.

A special session Engendering Technologies will be organized and papers can be submitted specifically for this session. This session aims to explore equal participation in education, design, production and use of technology, as well as to encourage more inclusive research, innovation and product development.

Contributions

Different modalities of participation in the congress have been defined, so that any researcher can find a way to contribute and attend the congress.
• Long articles. Up to 8 pages. These are articles that describe previously unpublished original work and provide significant research results.
• Short articles. Up to 4 pages. These are articles that describe work in progress, with intermediate results and that contribute to well-founded research.
• Doctoral Colloquium. Up to 2 pages. This is a forum for PhD students to present a summary of the objectives, methodology and preliminary results of the PhD work they are preparing.
• Presentations of research groups or projects. Up to 2 pages. Through this modality, a research group working in one of the areas covered by the congress can make a presentation of their work as a group, describing activities, projects and future plans, or of a specific research project they are carrying out or have just completed.
• Relevant articles already published. Up to 2 pages. A review of an article published by the authors in an impact journal may be submitted for dissemination among the congress attendees.
• Demonstrations. A demonstration of a tool, hardware, interactive artwork or similar may contribute to the conference. This demonstration will have a brief review associated with it (up to 2 pages).
