Abstract

Living labs provide real-world environments for experimentation with new concepts and concurrent, user-driven innovation. While innovation clearly means practical action, experimentation means scientific research. The paper discusses how such experiments can be designed with scientific rigor, what the research setting implies for the research method and how Web technology can be used for new ways of data collection from large stakeholder communities. The paper discusses how measuring instruments can be designed to support the integration of real life innovation and change with scientifically rigorous experimental laboratory. We introduce the example of www.produktive-schweiz. ch as an example of a minimal invasive research instrument to involve knowledge workers in their every day work environments. We focus on the logic of this instrument, which motivates participation and high quality data entry by providing instant meaningful feedback to participants. The paper concludes on the research opportunities of such instruments and their impact on operational scientific procedures, including theory foundation, questionnaire design, and result presentation.
生活实验室研究用科学仪器——知识工作者生产力评估
生活实验室为实验新概念和并发的、用户驱动的创新提供了真实的环境。创新显然意味着实际行动,而实验则意味着科学研究。本文讨论了如何用科学的严谨性来设计这样的实验,研究环境对研究方法意味着什么,以及如何将网络技术用于从大型利益相关者社区收集数据的新方法。本文讨论了如何设计测量仪器,以支持现实生活中的创新和变化与科学严谨的实验实验室相结合。我们介绍www.produktive-schweiz的例子。Ch是一个微创研究工具的例子,它可以让知识工作者参与到他们的日常工作环境中。我们专注于该工具的逻辑,它通过向参与者提供即时有意义的反馈来激励参与和高质量的数据输入。本文从理论基础、问卷设计和结果展示三个方面总结了此类仪器的研究机会及其对操作科学程序的影响。
