in: Samuli Pekkola (ed), Reframing humans in information systems development, Berlin, Springer, 2011Abstract
In this book we have portrayed several perspectives on humans in information systems development. Although we have aimed at providing as comprehensive understanding as possible, these perspectives are only some small glimpses and examples on the topic. Consequently, these papers can be seen to reflect the dispersed but interdisciplinary HCI communities as identified by Grudin (2006). His communities on human computer interaction, namely human factors and ergonomics (cognitive psychology perspective), HCI in management information systems (managerial, technology acceptance perspective), and computer–human interaction (social psychology perspective), provide historically justified view to the topic. This view can still be identified in the articles of this book.
