本文提出了一种新的研究方法--参与性行动设计研究（PADR）。PADR支持城市信息学研究开发新的技术手段（例如使用移动的和无处不在的计算），以解决当代问题或支持城市环境中的日常生活。本文讨论了城市信息学研究的性质、目标和内在的方法需求，并提出PADR作为满足这些需求的方法。城市信息学位于社会技术背景下，需要社会和设计导向的研究领域及其方法之间的密切对话。PADR结合了行动研究和设计科学研究，两者都用于信息系统，另一个具有强烈社会技术重点的领域，并进一步使其适应城市信息学的跨学科需求和研究背景。
This paper proposes a new research method, Participatory Action Design Research (PADR), for studies in the Urban Informatics domain. PADR supports Urban Informatics research in developing new technological means (e.g. using mobile and ubiquitous computing) to resolve contemporary issues or support everyday life in urban environments. The paper discusses the nature, aims and inherent methodological needs of Urban Informatics research, and proposes PADR as a method to address these needs. Situated in a socio-technical context, Urban Informatics requires a close dialogue between social and design-oriented fields of research as well as their methods. PADR combines Action Research and Design Science Research, both of which are used in Information Systems, another field with a strong socio-technical emphasis, and further adapts them to the cross-disciplinary needs and research context of Urban Informatics.
