Emerging Digital Technologies for Intelligence and Emotional intelligence

Dear Colleagues,

Since COVID-19, followed by the development of Industry 4.0, emerging technologies have had the objective of making our lives accessible, meaningful, and easier. Emerging technologies include a wide and broad variety of technological advancements, encompassing Artificial Intelligence (AI), Computer Vision, 6G cellular communications, Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), BCIs and biofeedback, robotics, drones, exergames, serious games, various game platforms, and many more, demanding researchers and professionals to be vigilant in being able to track, assess, and utilize them.

All these technologies, now more than ever, have been an essential part of our daily living, also used by many fellow researchers as facilitators of intelligence and emotional intelligence. Intelligence and emotional intelligence, following the principles of Maslow, Rodgers, Sternberg, and Gardner, as well as the 8x8 layer model of intelligence and the 9-layer model of emotional intelligence, are considered to be a holistic overview of success and achievement in life. These can greatly benefit from emerging technologies related to physical activity and exercise, breathing, nutrition, education, metacognition, meditation, mindfulness, and executive function development, enhancing human beings across their lifespan and providing new possibilities for cognition, stress reduction, spatial and body awareness, emotional stability, self-realization, and transcendence.

We encourage the submission of research that proposes innovative ideas, experimental studies, prototypes, and literature reviews, regarding the aspects of emerging technologies and their utilization to benefit and improve intelligence and emotional intelligence across the lifespan.
