Direct touch between people is a key element of social behaviour. Recently a number of researchers have explored games which sense aspects of such interpersonal touch to control interaction with a multiplayer computer game. In this paper, we describe...

A little respect: four case studies of HCI’s disregard for other disciplines (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marshall, J., Linehan, C., Spence, J., & Rennick-Egglestone, S. A little respect: four case studies of HCI’s disregard for other disciplines. Presented at CHI 2017: ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

HCI research often demonstrates lack of respect for other disciplines, evidenced by the way work from those disciplines are cited in CHI papers. We present 4 case studies that demonstrate; 1) that HCI researchers sometimes misunderstand and misrepres...

Throwaway citation of prior work creates risk of bad HCI research (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marshall, J., Linehan, C., Spence, J., & Rennick-Egglestone, S. Throwaway citation of prior work creates risk of bad HCI research. Presented at CHI 2017: ACM CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

In CHI papers, citation of previous work is typically a shallow, throwaway action that demonstrates little critical engagement with the work cited. We present a citation context analysis of over 3000 citations from 69 papers at CHI2016, which demonst... Read More about Throwaway citation of prior work creates risk of bad HCI research.

Misrepresentation of Health Research in Exertion Games Literature (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Marshall, J., & Linehan, C. (2017, May). Misrepresentation of Health Research in Exertion Games Literature. Presented at CHI '17: CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems, Denver Colorado USA

HCI often requires scholars to build upon research from fields outside their expertise, creating the risk that foundational work is misunderstood and misrepresented. The prevailing goal of “exergames” research towards ameliorating obesity appears to... Read More about Misrepresentation of Health Research in Exertion Games Literature.
