چکیده

Although constructs have been developed for designing the features of Behavior Change Support Systems (BCSSs), detailed descriptions and guidelines for their software level implementation are lacking. Through developing software design patterns one is able to examine BCSSs at a more intricate technical level instead of merely a black-box approach to them. In this paper, we present a software design pattern for rewarding users as a way of enhancing persuasive human-computer dialogue in BCSS. The resulting pattern contributes to both research on software design of persuasive system features, and for assisting the practical development of such systems.
