Carey, Tom, McKerlie, Diane L., Bubie, Walter and Wilson, James (1991): Communicating Human Factors Expertise Through Design Rationales and Scenarios. In: Diaper, Dan and Hammond, Nick (eds.) Proceedings of the Sixth Conference of the British Computer Society Human Computer Interaction Specialist Group - People and Computers VI August 20-23, 1991, Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, UK. pp. 117-130.

“This paper discusses the preliminary results and ongoing work of a collaborative research project which investigates methods to communicate the Human-Computer Interaction expertise of a human factors consulting group in a large corporate setting. The objective of the project is to extend the contribution of the human factors group. Their existing direct consultation on user-interface design will be combined with new methods which allow the results of those consultations to be widely accessible. The current experiments focus on design rationales and scenarios for user interfaces as the methods for communicating the expertise. In work to date, we have adapted previous research on design rationales for our new context of use. This has produced an enhanced format for recording and presenting design decisions and the reasoning process behind them. We have produced a prototype presentation system, seeded with design rationales from a large project with extensive involvement by the human factors group. This prototype is currently undergoing iterative test and refinement. We have also developed a framework for access to this information, by product engineers working on user interfaces, using complementary tables of contents within a hypertext space. These paradigms, or ways of looking at a user interface design problem, are themselves an important component of HCI expertise.”
