Welcome to The Psychology of Emerging Technology Book by Dr Mehmet Yildiz
Introduction to The Psychology of Emerging Technology Book
How Big Data, AI, and Cognitive Science Shape the Future of Human Minds and Intelligent Systems
Preorder Page of the book: https://books2read.com/psychologyofte...
Whitehouse AI Action Plan in the US and other frenetic movements in many developed countries for the utmost focus on AI and quantum computing as a race, which can have a significant impact on our future, inspired me to turn my psychology of technology manuscript into a book that anyone can gain insights from.
For more than four decades, I have worked at the intersection of cognitive science, neuroscience, technology, and psychology as a researcher, educator, and technology leader in global enterprises. I have witnessed firsthand how emerging technologies both expand and challenge the way we think, decide, learn, and live.
The Psychology of Emerging Technology is the culmination of this lifelong work. It defines and fills a critical gap in an emerging discipline: understanding how rapidly evolving tools, from Big Data and IoT to AI, cloud ecosystems, virtual reality, and wearable technology, reshape cognition, behavior, and mental well-being at individual, organizational, and societal levels.
Grounded in real-world leadership experience and academic research, I have written this book for PhD students, researchers, policymakers, technologists, enterprise leaders, and critical thinkers who seek more than surface-level commentary. Through case studies, cognitive models, and tested frameworks, it blends the precision of science with the insight of lived practice.
At its core is my MINDTECH™ framework, which stands for Mapping Innovation, Integrating Neuroscience, Navigating Data, Designing Technology, Testing Ethics, Empowering Cognition, Cultivating Humanity, and Harnessing Futures.
This original framework unites technical imperatives with cognitive and ethical outcomes, making it as relevant to AI architects as it is to educators, policy experts, and superlearners.
Supporting MINDTECH™ are two additional frameworks:
MINDTECH™ framework by Dr Mehmet YildizS.P.A.R.K.S.™: Scalable, Predictive, Adaptive, Resilient, Knowledge-Driven, Secure. Links each technical requirement to measurable business and societal outcomes, ensuring solutions are robust, flexible, and trustworthy.
S.E.E. Model: Signal, Experience, Ethics. Guides technology assessment for the AI era, ensuring accurate signal interpretation, meaningful human experience, and responsible governance.
The Pillar Framework structures the book into four parts: Concepts, Systems, People & Practice, and Applications & Futures, while the SMART MIND Loop™ integrates cognitive optimization strategies, ensuring ideas are understood, retained, and applied.
You will explore:
· How social media rewires attention and emotional processing.
· Why immersive VR and digital therapeutics can both heal and harm.
· How AI systems influence trust in human–machine collaboration.
· The risks of algorithmic bias, privacy erosion, and inequitable access, and how to address them through design and governance.
· And it will include more topics in the psychology of technology domain.
Every chapter closes with actionable insights and reflection questions to bridge knowledge and application. My aim is not only to explain how technology shapes the mind, but to equip you with tools to design, implement, and govern systems responsibly.
This is a book for those who want to lead with technical excellence, ethical responsibility, and cognitive wisdom, a guide for shaping the future of AI, data, and digital innovation without losing sight of the people it is meant to serve.
Technology does not just extend our capabilities. It reflects our fears, our habits, and our hopes back to us. Understanding that reflection is the first step toward using it wisely.
The most powerful technologies are not the ones we see, but the ones that quietly change how we think, decide, and feel, without asking for permission.
Every tool we adopt rewires us in some way. If we do not study how it shapes our minds, we risk being shaped without knowing it.
The book is now available for pre-order through many bookstores. I started alpha reading this week and will begin beta reading next month through my discount book store and Substack publications. The full version will be ready by 7 January 2026.
