Lewis, Clayton H., Hair, D. Charles and Schoenberg, Victor (1989): Generalization, Consistency, and Control. In: Bice, Ken and Lewis, Clayton H. (eds.) Proceedings of the ACM CHI 89 Human Factors in Computing Systems Conference April 30 - June 4, 1989, Austin, Texas. pp. 1-5.

Easy learning of a user interface depends in part on users being able to generalize successfully about it. Philosophical doctrine, and some recent work in human-computer interaction, argues that causal analysis of interactions can support generalization. But neither the philosophical literature nor the HCI literature provides a rigorous theory of causal analysis adequate for problems in human-computer interaction. We propose such a rigorous theory here, and show how it accounts for two robust generalizations, using certain general assumptions. We then present evidence that these assumptions are accepted by people. Finally we compare this theory with other treatments of consistency.

Lewis, Clayton H., Casner, Stephen, Schoenberg, Victor and Blake, Mitchell (1987): Analysis-Based Learning in Human-Computer Interaction. In: Bullinger, Hans-Jorg and Shackel, Brian (eds.) INTERACT 87 - 2nd IFIP International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction September 1-4, 1987, Stuttgart, Germany. pp. 275-280.

A model based on recent advances in machine learning can shed light on how people learn about unfamiliar systems from demonstration. The model uses simple heuristics to assign causal roles to user actions in a demonstration, and then forms new procedures for related goals using this analysis. Empirical studies have provided support for the general framework of the model, though many important specifics are unresolved. The model and supporting results provide some guidance for the design of systems that will be easy to learn from demonstrations.

I'm an enemy of what I call 'computer theology.' There's a class conflict out there. There's a techno-elite that lives in a different world.
