AI 中文摘要
在本文中,我们提出思想实验(TEs)作为人机交互(HCI)研究人员进行概念工作的关键方法。作为一个跨学科领域,HCI经常将概念用作更大理论的基本构建块。然而,我们在此过程中做出的概念承诺具有规范性后果。TEs是一种成熟的哲学方法,通过一个假设但易于处理的场景逻辑地得出结论。我们将TEs概述为一种通过逻辑步骤将概念化引向其规范性含义的探究方法。我们通过两个例子说明思想实验的价值:(1)批判价值敏感设计中利益相关者的原创思想实验;(2)海伦·尼森鲍姆利用思想实验生成情境完整性。我们讨论了TEs如何精确预测技术的潜在危害,使HCI能够落实当前对加强研究伦理审查及更广泛影响的呼吁。
英文摘要
In this paper, we propose thought experiments (TEs) as a crucial method for Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) researchers to engage in conceptual work. As an interdisciplinary field, HCI often uses concepts as the fundamental building blocks for larger theories. However, the conceptual commitments we make in this process carry normative consequences. TEs are a well-established philosophical method, whereby a hypothetical but tractable scenario logically progresses to a conclusion. We outline TEs as an interrogative method that brings conceptualizations to their normative implications through logical moves. We illustrate the value of thought experiments through two examples: (1) original thought experiments to critique stakeholders in Value-Sensitive Design and (2) Helen Nissenbaum's use of thought experiments to generate contextual integrity. We discuss how TEs precisely anticipate the potential harms of technologies, allowing HCI to operationalize current calls for increased scrutiny of research ethics and broader implications.
