Abstract

This article examines the impact of design thinking on the implementation of agile methods by user experience designers, with a focus on the roles of coordination and user testing as mediators. Data were collected from an online survey of 431 user experience designers in France between 2020 and 2022 and analyzed using structural equation modeling ( partial least squares regressions ). The results reveal a positive direct effect of research on conception and a positive direct effect of conception on user testing. In addition, a positive direct effect of user testing and coordination on the implementation of agile methods was observed. The research and conception dimensions of design thinking also exert a positive effect on agile methods through coordination. Finally, user testing fully mediates the relationship between conception and agile methods. The discussion addresses the theoretical and managerial implications of these findings and suggests directions for future research.

《以设计为主导的敏捷：用户体验设计师在敏捷方法论之旅中揭示设计思维的影响》

本文探讨了设计思维对用户体验设计师实施敏捷方法的影响，重点关注协调和用户测试作为中介的作用。该研究收集了2020年至2022年期间法国431名用户体验设计师的在线调查数据，并使用结构方程模型（偏最小二乘回归）进行分析。结果表明，研究对概念有直接的正向影响，概念对用户测试也有直接的正向影响。此外，用户测试和协调对敏捷方法的实施产生了积极的直接影响。设计思维的研究维度和概念维度也通过协同作用对敏捷方法产生积极影响。最后，用户测试完全调解了概念和敏捷方法之间的关系。讨论了这些发现的理论和管理意义，并提出了未来研究的方向。
