Day, Donald and Makirinne-Crofts, Paivi (1997): Computer Anxiety and the Human-Computer Interface. In: Thimbleby, Harold, O'Conaill, Brid and Thomas, Peter J. (eds.) Proceedings of the Twelfth Conference of the British Computer Society Human Computer Interaction Specialist Group - People and Computers XII August, 1997, Bristol, England, UK. pp. 85-100.

Despite widespread PC use in recent decades, many users remain anxious about their ability to cope with computers. This paper reports a study evaluating how interface features contribute to computer anxiety. Key constructs include cultural and individual differences, interface quality, self-efficacy, ease of use, user attitudes and intended usage behaviour. Findings indicate that anxious users prefer innovative I/O devices, experience low self-efficacy, and dislike inconsistent status messages and blocked-option menus. Intended usage behaviour appears to be inversely related to levels of computer anxiety. These findings provide moderate support for a modified Technology Acceptance Model proposed by the study.

Day, Donald (1996): Cultural Bases of Interface Acceptance: Foundation. In: Sasse, Martina Angela, Cunningham, R. J. and Winder, R. L. (eds.) Proceedings of the Eleventh Conference of the British Computer Society Human Computer Interaction Specialist Group - People and Computers XI August, 1996, London, UK. pp. 35-47.

This paper introduces an ongoing research project which seeks to contrast the cultural expectations of ethnically diverse users with the styles of interface implemented in globally marketed software packages. A modified Technology Acceptance Model is applied, focusing upon culturally specific user expectations and system design features. The paper includes discussion of two supporting research streams, drawn from science and technology studies, psychology, information studies, sociology, HCI and anthropology. It also introduces methods being used to calibrate instruments, validate procedures and identify variables for later direct observation of user behaviour.

Day, Donald (1995): Adaptive Discovery and Least Commitment: An Extension of Cognitive Fit. In: Proceedings of OZCHI95, the CHISIG Annual Conference on Human-Computer Interaction 1995. pp. 256-261.

This paper proposes refinement of a model of cognitive fit that can be applied to describe how developers of computerised design tools communicate process preferences to tool users via the human-computer interface. Suggested changes to the model are prompted by findings of an empirical study of user responses to process constraint. This paper describes and justifies extension of the model, which was cast originally as a means to match computer technology to user need. Following an examination of the model and of proposed changes, the paper discusses research to validate or disprove suggested refinements.
