快乐的开发者更有效率吗?软件开发人员情感状态与工作效率的相关性研究

Are Happy Developers more Productive? The Correlation of Affective States of Software Developers and their self-assessed Productivity

Daniel Graziotin, Xiaofeng Wang, Pekka Abrahamsson

摘要:

几十年来,人们一直声称提高软件开发人员生产力的一种方法是关注人。事实上,虽然人的因素已经在软件工程研究中得到了认可,但很少有实证研究试图验证这一说法。开发任务是通过认知处理能力来完成的。情感状态-情绪,情绪和感觉-对工作相关的行为,认知处理活动和个人的生产力有影响。在本文中,我们报告了一项实证研究的影响,情感状态对软件开发人员的性能,而编程。两个情感状态维度与自我评估的生产力呈正相关。我们展示了应用心理测量学在软件工程研究中的价值,并呼吁对软件开发人员的人性化、个性化方面进行评价。我们引入并验证了测量工具和线性混合效应模型来研究软件开发人员的情感状态和生产力的相关性。

英文摘要:

For decades now, it has been claimed that a way to improve software developers' productivity is to focus on people. Indeed, while human factors have been recognized in Software Engineering research, few empirical investigations have attempted to verify the claim. Development tasks are undertaken through cognitive processing abilities. Affective states - emotions, moods, and feelings - have an impact on work-related behaviors, cognitive processing activities, and the productivity of individuals. In this paper, we report an empirical study on the impact of affective states on software developers' performance while programming. Two affective states dimensions are positively correlated with self-assessed productivity. We demonstrate the value of applying psychometrics in Software Engineering studies and echo a call to valorize the human, individualized aspects of software developers. We introduce and validate a measurement instrument and a linear mixed-effects model to study the correlation of affective states and the productivity of software developers.
