Abstract
This chapter aims to describe persuasive health technology to help you understand the strategies that can improve the adherence to eHealth technologies and increase their effectiveness. We will show that technology can do more than only be appealing, as it can also be persuasive, and in this way be an excellent supporter for users to reach their own goals. The chapter starts with an introduction of persuasive technology and how this has been applied in the context of improving health and well-being. We then introduce the Persuasive Systems Design model and how it can be used to develop and evaluate eHealth technologies.
