Subclaims

Reading the evidence codes

q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.

This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.

q2 i? A comparison of focus groups, Future Workshops, Strategic Visioning Workshops, role-play games, SPES and Lead User Workshops against seven criteria shows none satisfies all of them. → Giasemi N. Vavoula and Mike Sharples 2007

q2 · i? · design · r2

Comparative analysis in Table #1 rating six method families against the seven criteria (minimal training, collaborative, direct input to design, cost-effective, relates people and technology, open-ended, pragmatic). The authors conclude "none of the reviewed techniques satisfies all the criteria".

"Table #1 compares the methods and techniques discussed above against the criteria we set out in the Introduction. As it shows, none of the reviewed techniques satisfies all the criteria."
