Affordances in HCI: toward a mediated action perspective
CHI '12: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsInterpretations of the concept of "affordances" in HCI are becoming increasingly diverse, extending well beyond the original Gibsonian meaning. We discuss some of the key analyses of affordances in HCI research and make three related claims. First, we ...
Reflective HCI: articulating an agenda for critical practice
CHI EA '06: CHI '06 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing SystemsReflective HCI is a style of HCI research that integrates technical practice with ongoing critical reflection. In the last thirty years, HCI researchers and practitioners have expanded their interests from aspects of cognitive ergonomics concerned with ...
The turn to practice in HCI: towards a research agenda
CHI '14: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsThis paper argues that a new paradigm for HCI research, which we label the 'practice' perspective, has been emerging in recent years. This stands in contrast to the prevailing mainstream HCI paradigm, which we term the 'interaction' perspective. The '...

Grudin analyzes the inter-disciplinary status of human-computer interaction (HCI) by collecting historical facts about, and researchers' perspectives on, the three main strands of HCI research (human factors and ergonomics, computer-human interaction, and HCI in information systems), with the hope that understanding each might help to overcome the current state of fragmentation in the field. The author examines and depicts five useful schematic figures, showing the historical milestones of each of the three strands; each strand's different focus on nondiscretionary versus discretionary use of computers, and its impact on the emphasis on error reduction and skill development versus an emphasis on aesthetic design matters; the differences in the dominant style of publication (conferences or journals); the cultural separation between those coming from military and governmental software development backgrounds and others, which even reflects on linguistic differences, leading to confusion and misunderstanding; and the original differences in the strands' theoretical foundations, namely industrial behaviorist psychology versus cognitive psychology, with a later influence from social scientists. Every researcher in the HCI field should read this paper. They might not find the definite solution to the fragmentation problem in it, but at least it will help them recognize the form of the problem. Online Computing Reviews Service
