Scenario-Based Methods for Evaluating Collaborative Systems

Abstract: Evaluating collaborative systems remains a significant challenge. Most evaluation methods approach the problem from one of two extremes: focused evaluation of specific system features, or broad ethnographic investigations of system use in context. In this paper, we develop and demonstrate a middle ground for evaluation: explicit reflections on scenarios of system use coupled with analysis of the consequences of these use scenarios, represented as claims. Extending prior work in scenario-based design and claims… Show more

“…A scenario‐based methodology was used to integrate and illustrate the set of impacts of the two‐way evaluation system that could act as examples of context to evaluate Uber passengers' thoughts dependent on the star rating received. In a similar vein with Haynes, Purao, and Skattebo () and Amatulli, Guido, and Nataraajan (), we argue that this approach provides the contextual sensitivity of the research method and also provides a sufficient structure for method replication, which is common in more feature‐based, quantitative evaluation techniques. This form of data collection was also chosen as it puts respondents in their possible realities (Stewart, Shamdasani, & Rook, ).…”

“…This technique has a long tradition in consumer research on behavioral intentions and expectancy‐value models (e.g., Ajzen, ; Fishbein & Ajzen, ). In line with Haynes, Purao, and Skattebo (), it was argued that such an approach provides not only the contextual sensitivity of qualitative techniques, but also a sufficient structure for method replication, which is common to more feature‐based, quantitative evaluation techniques. Representative scenarios, generated from responses that were most frequently recorded in a series of focus groups, were selected in this study, identifying features of consumption situations that might influence the age one might feel.…”

“…The scenarios are 'stories about people and their activities' [33] that incorporate the use of technology, with a purpose of (1) presenting and situating solutions, (2) illustrating alternative solutions and (3) identifying potential problems [32]. An important aspect is that the scenarios should be based on a good understanding of the context for which the system is developed [32,34,35].…”
