Subrahmaniyan, Neeraja, Beckwith, Laura, Grigoreanu, Valentina, Burnett, Margaret M., Wiedenbeck, Susan, Narayanan, Vaishnavi, Bucht, Karin, Drummond, Russell and Fern, Xiaoli (2008): Testing vs. code inspection vs. what else?: male and female end users' debugging strategies. In: Proceedings of ACM CHI 2008 Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems April 5-10, 2008. pp. 617-626.

“Little is known about the strategies end-user programmers use in debugging their programs, and even less is known about gender differences that may exist in these strategies. Without this type of information, designers of end-user programming systems cannot know the "target" at which to aim, if they are to support male and female end-user programmers. We present a study investigating this issue. We asked end-user programmers to debug spreadsheets and to describe their debugging strategies. Using mixed methods, we analyzed their strategies and looked for relationships among participants' strategy choices, gender, and debugging success. Our results indicate that males and females debug in quite different ways, that opportunities for improving support for end-user debugging strategies for both genders are abundant, and that tools currently available to end-user debuggers may be especially deficient in supporting debugging strategies used by females.”

Subrahmaniyan, Neeraja, Burnett, Margaret M. and Bogart, Christopher (2008): Software visualization for end-user programmers: trial period obstacles. In: Proceedings of the ACM Symposium on Software Visualization 2008. pp. 135-144.

“Software visualization for end-user programmers is a relatively unexplored opportunity area. There are advances in software visualization research pertinent to this, but the adoption stage has been entirely ignored. In this paper, we focus on a popular facilitator of adoption decisions: the free trial period. We conducted a case study of an end-user programmer (an accountant) in this situation, as she tried out a commercial spreadsheet visualization tool to make an adoption decision. The results have implications for both theory and design, revealing open questions, design opportunities, and strengths and weaknesses of theoretical foundations.”
