我们一直致力于揭示男性和女性在最终用户编程情况下解决问题的方式上的性别差异，并发现了男性与女性在使用几个调试功能方面的差异。尽管如此，由于这条调查路线是新的，确切地知道要寻找什么是困难的，重要的信息可能会逃过我们的注意。因此，我们决定将数据挖掘技术应用于我们的数据，有两个目的：首先，扩展关于男性与女性如何利用最终用户调试功能的已知信息，其次，了解数据挖掘是否可以为这项研究带来新的理解，因为我们已经使用定性和定量方法手动研究了数据。研究结果提出了几个新的假设，即男性和女性如何进行最终用户调试任务，影响他们选择的因素，以及他们的选择如何与成功相关联
We have been working to uncover gender differences in the ways males and females problem solve in end-user programming situations, and have discovered differences in males' versus females' use of several debugging features. Still, because this line of investigation is new, knowing exactly what to look for is difficult and important information could escape our notice. We therefore decided to bring data mining techniques to bear on our data, with two aims: primarily, to expand what is known about how males versus females make use of end-user debugging features, and secondarily, to find out whether data mining could bring new understanding to this research, given that we had already studied the data manually using qualitative and quantitative methods. The results suggested several new hypotheses in how males versus females go about end-user debugging tasks, the factors that play into their choices, and how their choices are associated with success
