“…Based on the work of [9] the author introduced the concept of HCI dimensions to support the determination of the relationship between culture and HCI [17]. HCI dimensions (HCIDs) describe the "style of information processing" and the "interactional characteristics" of the user with the system.…”

“…Moreover, an explorative study with French and Turkish users on an e-learning site by [121] improved the cross-cultural understanding of the dual structure of metaphorical icons. Hidden cultural variables in HCI design such as information speed, information frequency, and interaction speed and interaction frequency have been touched by [17] (cf. Section 3.3).…”

“…The influences of culture in global software engineering were analyzed by [74] via thinking in terms of cultural models. Based on the results of [17], the author formulated reflections on a preliminary model of culturally influenced human computer interaction to cover cultural contexts in HCI design which encompass the relationships between cultural and HCI dimensions. According to the results of an empirical study done by the author (cf.…”

“…According to the results of an empirical study done by the author (cf. [44]), some of the correlations between the cultural dimensions and the HCI dimensions as well as their values were determined (cf. Table 5).…”

“…To achieve this both the values of the cultural dimensions (using VSM) and the values of the HCI dimensions (such as pieces of presented information per minute, cf. [17]) must be determined for every desired culture. This can be done for indigenous groups as well by exploiting the same use cases and test settings in the arbitrary cultural groups of interest.…”

This chapter starts with an introduction illuminating the theoretical background necessary for taking culture into account in HCI design. Definitions of concepts used are provided followed by a historical overview on taking culture into account in HCI design. Subsequently, a glimpse of the current state of research in culture-centered HCI design is derived from secondary literature providing the gist of the structures, processes, methods, models and theoretic approaches concerning the relationship between culture and HCI design ("converging" strategies). After presenting controversies and challenges, a short discussion of results from empirical studies and design recommendations for culture-centered HCI design lead to implications and trends in future intercultural user interface design research to close the knowledge gap (the "divergence") regarding the relationship between culture and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), i.e. converging the divergence to reach the convergent divergence.
