“…Many authors have noted that this relationship is richer and more complex than with other traditional tools, such as a screwdriver or hammer (Card, Newell, & Moran, 1983;Nass & Moon, 2000). Computers and computing technology bring with them multiple and flexible capabilities through which a human will interact in similar ways that they may interact with another human (Marakas, Johnson, & Palmer, 2000;Nass & Moon, 2000). Therefore, the HCI field focuses on a broad set up topics beyond objective system usability, such as interface design, user-centered design, social computing, technology trust, augmented reality, mobile versus desktop platforms, ubiquitous computing, and psychological and social responses to computers.…”

Abstract:In this special issue, we focus on the role that human-computer interaction (HCI) can play in the development and successful use of human resource information systems (HRIS) in organizations. There is no doubt that information systems have transformed the practice of human resources. From online/e-recruiting to e-learning and the growing interest in data analytics, the practice of human resources has become technology centric. Given the overlap of human resource practice and information systems, both fields need to work together to develop models and theories that advance the practice of HRIS in organizations. Therefore, this special issue a) briefly reviews the history of the HRIS field, b) advances theory and research that stands at the intersection of HRIS and HCI, and c) suggest new directions for research at the intersection of HRIS and HCI.

“…On the downside, stereotypes might apply, in relation to haircut, facial geometry, age, gender, skin colour; even clothes and speaking style have to be defined and cannot stay "neutral". However, this might result in the attribution of a personality (Nass et al 2001;Sproull et al 1996;Marakas et al 2000). Therefore, simple design decisions may result in incongruence with the user's expectations for the service or impression of the brand.…”

Evaluating embodied conversational agents in multimodal interfaces

et al. 2015

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Based on cross-disciplinary approaches to Embodied Conversational Agents, evaluation methods for such human-computer interfaces are structured and presented. An introductory systematisation of evaluation topics from a conversational perspective is followed by an explanation of social-psychological phenomena studied in interaction with Embodied Conversational Agents, and how these can be used for evaluation purposes. Major evaluation concepts and appropriate assessment instruments -established and new ones -are presented, including questionnaires, annotations and log-files. An exemplary evaluation and guidelines provide hands-on information on planning and preparing such endeavours.

“…As technological developments progress at a rapid pace, computers are ubiquitous and disappearing. They become regarded even as 'social agents' rather than just a machine (Marakas et al, 2000). As a result, it is deemed that communication with computers should be more natural and friendlier than the traditional one chiefly relying on hand driven movement using the mouse or the keyboard.…”
