Moesker, K. (author), Pesch, U. (author), Doorn, N. (author)As global issues such as climate change and diminishing resources become increasingly pressing, water recycling has moved into the focus. However, the successful implementation of Direct Potable Water Reuse (DPR) projects hinges on securing public acceptance, which remains challenging. This paper aims to flesh out possible reasons for the...journal article 2024

Wiarda, M.J. (author), Janssen, Matthijs J. (author), Coenen, Tom B.J. (author), Doorn, N. (author)Governance lies at the heart of instigating, steering, and creating the conditions for mission-oriented transitions that potentially help resolve some of our grand societal challenges. In doing so, policymakers will need to navigate both epistemic and normative considerations to develop, implement, and evaluate missions responsibly. A number...journal article 2024

Dizani, A. (author), Ghorbani, Amineh (author), Taebi, B. (author), van de Poel, I.R. (author)In recent decades, distinct national approaches to engineering ethics have evolved, each tailored to its unique contextual factors. These contextual disparities make it unfeasible to transfer one country's engineering ethics approach directly into another. This calls for a compelling need to enhance our comprehension of engineering ethics...journal article 2024

Rejali, Sina (author), Watson-Brown, Natalie (author), Kaye, Sherrie Anne (author), Senserrick, Teresa (author), Oviedo-Trespalacios, O. (author)Empirical data demonstrates that distracted driving is a leading cause of crashes even in countries with sophisticated road safety systems. As such, a paradigm shift is needed to prevent driver distraction. This study aims to contribute to this paradigm shift by critically investigating the official distraction-related information and road...journal article 2024

Klenk, M.B.O.T. (author)Franke, in Philosophy & Technology, 37(1), 1–6, (2024), connects the recent debate about manipulative algorithmic transparency with the concerns about problematic pursuits of positive liberty. I argue that the indifference view of manipulative transparency is not aligned with positive liberty, contrary to Franke’s claim, and even if it is...journal article 2024

van Grunsven, J.B. (author), Marin, L. (author), Stone, T.W. (author), Doorn, N. (author), Roeser, S. (author)Moral (or ethical) sensitivity is widely viewed as a foundational learning goal in engineering ethics education. We have argued in this paper is that this view of moral sensitivity cannot be readily transported from the nursing context to the engineering context on the basis of a care-analogy. The particularized care characteristic of the...book chapter 2023

Cuentas-Hernandez, Sandra (author), Li, Xiaomeng (author), King, Mark J. (author), Oviedo-Trespalacios, O. (author)Introduction: Driver distraction has been recognized for a long time as a significant road safety issue. It has been consistently reported that drivers spend considerable time engaged in activities that are secondary to the driving task. The temporary diversion of attention from safety-critical driving tasks has often been associated with...journal article 2023

Wiarda, M.J. (author), Doorn, N. (author)Societal challenges tend to be characterized by their multi-scalarity as problems emerge and co-evolve on multiple scales. Resolving these challenges requires innovators to navigate often conflicting considerations between multiple scales when dealing with complexity, uncertainty, and contestation. Innovators need to ground resolutions in local...journal article 2023

Coggins, T.N. (author), Steinert, S. (author)Many researchers from robotics, machine ethics, and adjacent fields seem to assume that norms represent good behavior that social robots should learn to benefit their users and society. We would like to complicate this view and present seven key troubles with norm-compliant robots: (1) norm biases, (2) paternalism (3) tyrannies of the majority, ...journal article 2023

Li, Xiaomeng (author), Kaye, Sherrie Anne (author), Afghari, A.P. (author), Oviedo-Trespalacios, O. (author)Despite the promised benefits, the introduction of Automated Vehicles (AVs) on roads will be confronted by many challenges, including public readiness to use those vehicles and share the roads with them. The risk profile of road users is a key determinant of their safety on roads. However, the relation of such risk profiles to road users’...journal article 2023

Seskir, Zeki C. (author), Umbrello, S. (author), Coenen, Christopher (author), Vermaas, P.E. (author)As quantum technologies (QT) advance, their potential impact on and relation with society has been developing into an important issue for exploration. In this paper, we investigate the topic of democratization in the context of QT, particularly quantum computing. The paper contains three main sections. First, we briefly introduce different...journal article 2023

Mannak, Remco S. (author), Markus, Arjan (author), Meeus, Marius T.H. (author), Raab, Jörg (author), Smit, A.C. (author)In this study, we explore the relationship between inter-organizational network dynamics and innovation outcomes. We focus on node turnover and argue that both cluster and broker dynamics can range from low (stable) to high (volatile), resulting in differentiated outcomes. The data comprises 318 consortium members participating in 104 R&D...journal article 2023

Klenk, M.B.O.T. (author), van de Poel, I.R. (author)We examine whether Thomsonian constitutivism, a metaethical view that analyses value in terms of ‘goodness-fixing kinds,’ i.e. kinds that themselves set the standards for being a good instance of the respective kind, offers a satisfactory explanation of value change and disagreement. While value disagreement has long been considered an important...journal article 2023

Li, Xiaomeng (author), Afghari, A.P. (author), Oviedo-Trespalacios, O. (author), Kaye, Sherrie Anne (author), Haworth, Narelle (author)Fully automated vehicles (FAVs) have the potential to improve road safety and reduce traffic congestion and emissions. Most studies of acceptance of FAVs have focused on motor vehicle users, largely ignoring other road users, such as cyclists. This study investigates the factors that influence cyclists’ receptivity towards sharing roads with...journal article 2023

Buijsman, S.N.R. (author)Why should we explain opaque algorithms? Here four papers are discussed that argue that, in fact, we don’t have to. Explainability, according to them, isn’t needed for trust in algorithms, nor is it needed for other goals we might have. I give a critical overview of these arguments, showing that there is still room to think that explainability...conference paper 2023

van Grunsven, J.B. (author), Stone, T.W. (author), Marin, L. (author)It is crucial for engineers to anticipate the socio-ethical impacts of emerging technologies. Such acts of anticipation are thoroughly normative and should be cultivated in engineering ethics education. In this paper we ask: ‘how do we anticipate the socio-ethical implications of emerging technologies responsibly?’ And ‘how can such responsible...journal article 2023

Popa, O.E. (author), Blok, Vincent (author), Katsoukis, Georgios (author), Schubert, Cornelius (author)We propose and illustrate a model for evaluating the moral impact of technologies from a pluralist perspective. We conceptualize technological artefacts as having moral profiles that consist of the values served and disserved along five levels of decision-making: (1) problem, (2) strategy, (3) resources, (4) product and (5) design. The notion of...journal article 2023

Roeser, S. (author), Steinert, S. (author)Risky technologies such as biotechnology, energy technologies, and digital technologies are frequently highly controversial. While such technologies can contribute to people’s well-being, they can also create social disruption. The latter requires approaches for decision-making on how to responsibly design risky technologies. Technology is not...book chapter 2023

Benitez Avila, C.A. (author), Schuberth, Florian (author), Copeland, S.M. (author)The pragmatic view of urban resilience has re-framed long-lasting social issues as chronic social stresses that can be addressed by building strong social networks in urban environments. This practice, inspired by disaster management, is problematic because it presupposes a community whose members share the same fate. Conversely, social...journal article 2023
