This is funding to support a Doctoral Consortium (workshop) of about 15 promising graduate students from the United States and abroad, along with 6 distinguished research faculty mentors. The event will take place in conjunction with the ACM 2014 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI 2014), which is sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Human-Computer Interaction (SIGCHI) and will be held April 26-May 1 in Toronto, Canada. The annual CHI conference is the leading international forum for the presentation and discussion of human-computer interaction (HCI) research and practice, and is attended by approximately 3,400 HCI professionals from around the world. Research reports published in the CHI Conference Proceedings and the CHI Extended Abstracts are heavily refereed and widely cited; they are among the most scientifically respected research publications in the field of HCI. More information about the conference is available online at http://chi2014.acm.org.The Doctoral Consortium is a research-focused meeting that has taken place annually at the CHI conference since 1986, and has helped to launch the careers of many outstanding HCI researchers. Goals of the workshop include building a cohort group of new researchers who will then have a network of colleagues spread out across the world, guiding the work of new researchers by having experts in the research field give them advice, and making it possible for promising new entrants to the field to attend their research conference. Student participants will present their work during the two full days of the Consortium on April 26-27. Each student will have a 45-minute time slot in which to make a formal presentation and receive feedback from the faculty panel, which is geared to helping students understand and articulate how their work is positioned relative to other human-computer interaction research, whether their topics are adequately focused for thesis research projects, whether their methods are correctly chosen and applied, and whether their results are appropriately analyzed and presented. The program for the two full days of the Consortium will also include substantial informal opportunities for discussion and additional feedback, with follow up activities planned during the technical program of the conference. Extended abstracts of the students' work will be published in the CHI 2014 Extended Abstracts, which is distributed to all conference registrants and included in the ACM Digital Library. SIGCHI's conference management committee will evaluate the event, and the results will be made available to the organizers of future consortia. The CHI doctoral consortia have been highly successful in providing a forum for the initial socialization into the field of young doctoral scholars; many of today's leading HCI researchers participated as students in earlier consortia.Broader Impacts: The annual CHI doctoral consortia traditionally bring together the best of the next generation of HCI researchers, allowing them to create a social network both among themselves and with senior researchers at a critical stage in their professional development. Applications are encouraged from all doctoral students whose research is HCI-related, regardless of the fields in which they are earning their degrees. In accordance with CISE policy, NSF funds will be used solely to support participation by students enrolled in graduate programs in the United States, although there will also be a number of international participants in recognition of the fact that the HCI field embraces educational and cultural traditions that vary in different parts of the world. The organizers have undertaken to work to identify and include the broadest possible group of highly qualified participants; as a consequence, the student and faculty participants will constitute a diverse group across a variety of dimensions, which will help broaden the students' horizons to the future benefit of the field. To further promote diversity no more than one student will be accepted from any given institution, except in the case where including a second student from the same school would allow a woman to be a participant.

这笔资金用于支持由来自美国和国外的约 15 名有前途的研究生以及 6 名杰出的研究教师导师组成的博士联盟（研讨会）。 该活动将与 ACM 2014 年计算系统人为因素会议 (CHI 2014) 同期举行，该会议由计算机协会人机交互特别兴趣小组 (SIGCHI) 主办，将于 4 月 26 日至 5 月 1 日在加拿大多伦多举行。 一年一度的 CHI 会议是展示和讨论人机交互 (HCI) 研究和实践的领先国际论坛，约有 3,400 名来自世界各地的 HCI 专业人士参加。 CHI 会议论文集和 CHI 扩展摘要中发表的研究报告受到大量引用和广泛引用；它们是人机交互领域最受科学尊重的研究出版物之一。 有关该会议的更多信息，请访问 http://chi2014.acm.org。Doctoral Consortium 是一个以研究为重点的会议，自 1986 年以来每年在 CHI 会议上举行，帮助许多杰出的 HCI 研究人员开启了职业生涯。 研讨会的目标包括建立一个由新研究人员组成的队列小组，然后他们将拥有遍布世界各地的同事网络，通过让研究领域的专家向新研究人员提供建议来指导新研究人员的工作，并使该领域有前途的新进入者能够参加他们的研究会议。 学生参与者将在 4 月 26 日至 27 日为期两天的联盟活动中展示他们的作品。 每个学生将有 45 分钟的时间进行正式演讲并接收教师小组的反馈，旨在帮助学生理解和阐明他们的工作相对于其他人机交互研究的定位，他们的主题是否充分关注论文研究项目，他们的方法是否正确选择和应用，以及他们的结果是否得到适当的分析和呈现。 联盟为期两天的计划还将包括大量非正式讨论和额外反馈的机会，并在会议技术计划期间计划开展后续活动。 学生作品的扩展摘要将发布在 CHI 2014 Extended Abstracts 中，该摘要将分发给所有会议注册者并包含在 ACM 数字图书馆中。 SIGCHI的会议管理委员会将对此次活动进行评估，结果将提供给未来联盟的组织者。 CHI 博士联盟在为年轻博士学者初次进入该领域提供了一个论坛方面取得了巨大成功；当今许多领先的 HCI 研究人员都以学生身份参与了早期联盟。 更广泛的影响：一年一度的 CHI 博士联盟传统上汇集了下一代 HCI 研究人员中最优秀的人才，使他们能够在自己之间以及与处于专业发展关键阶段的高级研究人员建立社交网络。 我们鼓励所有研究与人机交互相关的博士生提出申请，无论他们获得学位的领域如何。 根据 CISE 政策，NSF 资金将仅用于支持在美国就读研究生课程的学生的参与，尽管也有许多国际参与者认识到 HCI 领域包含世界不同地区不同的教育和文化传统。 组织者已承诺努力寻找并纳入尽可能广泛的高素质参与者群体；因此，学生和教师的参与者将构成一个跨多个维度的多元化群体，这将有助于拓宽学生的视野，使该领域的未来受益。 为了进一步促进多样性，任何特定机构都不会接受超过一名学生，除非来自同一学校的第二名学生允许女性参加。
