Ethical and Responsible Research in the Design of Sociotechnical Systems

在这个项目中，研究小组将促进道德和负责任的研究（ER 2）教学原型的发展，旨在促进有关ER 2的社会和计算（社会技术）系统的健康研究实践的对话。ER 2教学原型将通过三个阶段的过程开发，包括：（1）评估现有的ER 2培训和学术课程的实践，提供人机交互（HCI）的培训（2）与使用/研究/开发社会技术系统的健康研究人员进行访谈，以及（3）进行社区共同设计研讨会。 主要贡献将包括ER 2教学原型，供那些设计用于健康研究的技术使用，以及在行为生态系统模型内锚定利益相关者的教育干预/策略的建议。这项研究将是感兴趣的健康研究人员，卫生保健提供者，卫生保健用户和他们的家庭，以及用于通知卫生保健劳动力的培训。该项目将探索如何在提供健康研究交叉领域人机交互培训的学术项目中培养道德和负责任的研究（ER 2）。 该研究小组将检查和记录当前的HCI ER 2景观，并设计学校课程，以确定引入正式和临时教学活动的优势，劣势，机会和威胁，以促进应用于健康研究的尊重社会技术系统设计。使用以人为本的设计过程，该研究旨在提高对ER 2实践和相关社会责任的认识，这些实践和社会责任发生在健康研究的日常周期中。 首先，与第1-2阶段相关的活动将产生学术贡献，包括相关文献和前瞻性访谈的系统综述数据，以研究人机交互和跨学科设计项目中的ER 2态度和实践。这些方案的目标是，这些环境是社会技术系统正在概念化和开发用于健康研究和医疗保健的地方。其次，通过使用生态框架创建现有ER 2培训景观的地图，研究团队将记录ER 2培训如何在实践中应用（例如，设计数据库，创建数据挂钩，开发数据可视化仪表板）。这将形成战略，以执行ER 2工具包，用于社会技术卫生系统研究。第三，通过第三阶段概述的社区共同设计过程开发的教学原型将为“设计空间”提供定义和示例，以促进HCI教育计划中的ER 2培训和实践。 在更广泛的影响方面，该研究将为道德教育工作者和更大的社会技术卫生系统研究社区开发教学工具和建议，这些研究社区以行为生态系统模型为基础。 这项研究的一个长期影响是促进健康研究人员之间的对话有关的伦理，法律的，和社会影响与（错误）使用的社会技术系统在research.This奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过评估使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准的支持。

In this project, the research team will facilitate the development of ethical and responsible research (ER2) instructional prototypes designed to prompt dialogue about ER2 practices in social and computing (sociotechnical) systems for health research. The ER2 instructional prototypes will be developed through a three-phased process that includes: (1) an assessment of existing ER2 training and practices in academic programs that provide training in human computer interaction (HCI) (2) interviews with health researchers who use/study/develop sociotechnical systems, and (3) conducting community co-design workshops. Key contributions will include the ER2 instructional prototypes for use by those designing technologies for use in health research as well as recommendations for educational interventions/strategies that are anchored to stakeholders within a behavioral ecological systems model. This research will be of interest to health researchers, health care providers, and health care users and their families, as well as be used to inform the training of the health care workforce. The project will explore how ethical and responsible research (ER2) is cultivated in academic programs that provide training in HCI at the intersection of health research. The research team will examine and document the current ER2 landscape of HCI and design school programs to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats to introducing formal and ad hoc instructional activities to foster respectful sociotechnical systems design applied to health research. Using a human centered design process, the research aims to increase awareness of ER2 practices and related social responsibilities that occur throughout the day-to-day cycle of health research. First, activities related to Phases 1-2 will generate academic contributions that include data from a systematic review of relevant literature and prospective interviews to examine ER2 attitudes and practices among and within human computer interaction and interdisciplinary design programs. These programs are targeted as these settings are where sociotechnical systems are being conceptualized and developed for use in health research and healthcare. Second, by creating a map of the existing ER2 training landscape, using an ecological framework, the research team will document how ER2 training is applied in practice (e.g., designing databases, creating hooks into the data, developing data visualization dashboards). This will shape strategies for implementation of an ER2 Toolkit for sociotechnical health systems research. Third, the instructional prototypes developed through the community co-design process outlined in Phase 3 will contribute definitions and examples to a "design space" for tools to promote ER2 training and practice in HCI educational programs. In terms of broader impacts, the research will develop instructional tools and recommendations for ethics educators and the larger sociotechnical health systems research community that are anchored to the behavioral ecological systems model. A long-term impact of this research is to promote dialogue among health researchers about the ethical, legal, and social implications associated with the (mis)use of sociotechnical systems in research.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
