Vertr.-Prof. Dr. Johanna Bogon

(formerly Johanna Egetemeir)

I am Interim Professor for Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Regensburg. My academic background is interdisciplinary, with experience in cognitive psychology, media informatics, and human-computer interaction (HCI). This combination of basic and applied research forms the foundation of my work, which focuses primarily on the cognitive aspects of human-machine interaction.

At the core of my research are perceptual and action-related processes, as well as the role of attention, expectation, and temporal structure in interactions with technological systems. I investigate how these cognitive mechanisms are influenced by interactive technologies – and how psychological insights, in turn, can inform the design of such systems. A particular focus lies on the factor of time: How do temporal aspects shape our experience and behavior when interacting with digital technologies? I explore this question in various applied contexts – including virtual reality, everyday human-technology interactions, and video games.

More recently, I have also been exploring how the relationship between humans and technology is changing in light of current developments – such as generative AI, collaborative robotics, or multimodal language systems. My focus lies less on technical performance and more on designing cooperative human-machine relationships, in which human and machine capabilities meaningfully complement one another.
