平板电脑的拥有量在过去一年中迅速增长。虽然市场研究调查帮助我们了解了平板电脑拥有者的人口统计数据，并提供了有关使用情况的早期见解，但几乎没有全面的研究。本文介绍了一种多方法的研究工作，采用书面和视频日记，在家里的采访，和上下文查询观察，以了解平板电脑的使用在美国的三个地点。我们的研究提供了一个深入的图片频繁的平板电脑活动（例如，检查电子邮件、玩游戏、社交网络），使用位置（例如，沙发、床、桌子），以及环境因素（例如，看电视、吃饭、做饭）。它还有助于了解人们为什么以及如何选择使用平板电脑。平板电脑使用的热门活动，如媒体消费，购物，烹饪和生产力也进行了探索。我们的研究结果为丰富平板电脑体验提供了设计意义和机会，并为未来的研究提供了议程。
Tablet ownership has grown rapidly over the last year. While market research surveys have helped us understand the demographics of tablet ownership and provided early insights into usage, there is little comprehensive research available. This paper describes a multi-method research effort that employed written and video diaries, in-home interviews, and contextual inquiry observations to learn about tablet use across three locations in the US. Our research provides an in-depth picture of frequent tablet activities (e.g., checking emails, playing games, social networking), locations of use (e.g., couch, bed, table), and contextual factors (e.g., watching TV, eating, cooking). It also contributes an understanding of why and how people choose to use tablets. Popular activities for tablet use, such as media consumption, shopping, cooking, and productivity are also explored. The findings from our research provide design implications and opportunities for enriching the tablet experience, and agendas for future research.
