我们通过可视化设计研究开发了一个新的研究视角,强调设计作为一种探究方法,以及通过它实现的广泛的知识贡献,作为多重的,主观的和社会构建的。从这个解释主义的立场,我们探讨了可视化设计研究的性质,并制定了严格的六个标准。我们建议,严格性的建立和判断,在何种程度上可视化设计研究的研究和报告。这种观点和标准是通过四年的参与,围绕严谨性和社会科学,信息系统和设计知识的性质的话语。我们建议从同源学科的方法,可以支持可视化研究人员在满足这些标准的规划,执行和报告的设计研究。通过一系列故意挑衅性的问题,我们探讨了这种新的视角对可视化设计研究的影响,得出的结论是,作为一门学科,可视化还没有很好地拥抱,培育,并充分受益于严格的,解释主义的方法来设计研究。我们提出的观点和标准旨在激发围绕可视化设计研究的本质和学科更广泛基础的对话和辩论。
We develop a new perspective on research conducted through visualization design study that emphasizes design as a method of inquiry and the broad range of knowledge-contributions achieved through it as multiple, subjective, and socially constructed. From this interpretivist position we explore the nature of visualization design study and develop six criteria for rigor. We propose that rigor is established and judged according to the extent to which visualization design study research and its reporting are. This perspective and the criteria were constructed through a four-year engagement with the discourse around rigor and the nature of knowledge in social science, information systems, and design. We suggest methods from cognate disciplines that can support visualization researchers in meeting these criteria during the planning, execution, and reporting of design study. Through a series of deliberately provocative questions, we explore implications of this new perspective for design study research in visualization, concluding that as a discipline, visualization is not yet well positioned to embrace, nurture, and fully benefit from a rigorous, interpretivist approach to design study. The perspective and criteria we present are intended to stimulate dialogue and debate around the nature of visualization design study and the broader underpinnings of the discipline.
