Humans First

Welcome to the web site of the Internet Psychology Research Institute. We exist to research and promote human centered approaches to the development of internet resources.

This site is currently under development, but if you follow some of the links from this home page, you'll get a sense of what the site is about. For example, you'll see to your left links dealing with internet consumer education and protection. What's this about? It's about empowering internet users so that they are able to make informed choices about the resources they consume on the internet (primarily information) and the tools that they make use of (for example, the ability to shop on the internet).

If you look to the links above here, you'll notice a News Room section. There you will find a news feed (forthcoming) - and also areas where we feature selected news stories (including a Happy News section!). You might like to click on the link - and have a look at the stories we're currently featuring.

The IPRI is a non-profit, virtual organization. That means we need financial and other support for our survival. If you have a look at our Support section, there's information about how you can help us if you feel that you are able.

We hope you enjoy your visit to the site. We welcome your feedback - just click on the Contact Us link for information about how to get in touch.
