Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Over the last years active safety has become an increasingly important factor within the automotive industry. Active safety systems, also known as Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), have the function of actively assisting the driver in avoiding accidents by providing information about current and upcoming traffic situations and helping the driver take proper actions before a potential accident occurs. In this paper, differences and similarities in attitude towards three different ADAS were investigated. A set of three focus group discussions were conducted with Swedish, US American, and Chinese participants. The analysis of subjective data showed differences between the three groups regarding attitudes towards system feasibility, information presentation and need for system adjustability. Results also showed that factors such as driving conditions, infrastructure, and traffic regulations all seemed to influence the hypothesised usefulness of the different systems.

Recharging Future Mobility : Understanding Digital Anticipatory UX through Car Ethnographies
- 2022
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Cars have created many positive experiences for people by providing them freedom of mobility, exciting driving thrills and status in society. However, cars are also known to create problems such as pollution, traffic congestion and accidents. To shift towards a more sustainable way of mobility for the future, we need to understand car users' experiences of today and how these shape their anticipation of future mobility.Today users of new cars create their future car using immersive online car configurators, share their anticipation and experiences about the functionality of recent software updates on social media or consider how their future electric car could be charged in a ‘smart’-way through available charging ecosystems. These examples show how digitalisation through new digital technologies extend the ways users anticipate and experience cars as they evolve. These experiences go beyond the moment of in-car interactions, which so far has been the focus for user experience (UX) research and development within academia and industry.UX of digitalised cars is no longer mainly about the experiences of in-car driving and entertainment. Instead, digital technologies expand the possibilities for peoples' anticipation and UX of cars to emerge anywhere and anytime, making human anticipation an important aspect of UX to understand. The forward-oriented decision process, which occurs when people's hopes and fears about the future become part of their present actions and decisions, becomes a strong driver for people's decision making. Therefore, it becomes important to understand anticipation in relation to UX of digitalised cars and for how people shape their futures with cars.Digitalisation of traditional physical products enables a mix of the digital and physical representations of the product, which adds new challenges in how we can understand and research UX of digitalised cars to include more aspects than in the individual moment of physical use, such as people's experiences of anticipating cars. Consequently, my thesis intends to answer the question: How can experiences of anticipating digitalised cars be understood?I have approached the question by studying how digitalisation extends possibilities for UX and anticipation of cars to emerge in everyday life. To investigate the phenomena in everyday settings and follow change over time, a qualitative Design Ethnography (DE) approach was chosen and further developed throughout three different studies. The first study showed experiences of anticipation to be anticipatory, socially constructed, evolving and creating emotional experiences at an online car discussion forum. The second study demonstrated experiences of anticipating autonomous driving (AD) cars to be situated in the social and environmental context, influencing the instant, near and far time spans of people’s anticipation of AD. The third study revealed how electric cars as digital platforms enable people’s anticipation of cars to be related to the surrounding ecosystems. Thus, overall, the thesis consists of five papers that investigate people’s experiences of anticipating digitalised cars from different perspectives.This thesis’s main contribution is directed to UX research in the academic field of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) and the automotive industry. It aims to provide an understanding of how people’s anticipatory experiences of emerging digital technologies related to cars shape new problems and possibilities for future mobility. It concludes that UX research and design needs to be extended to also include aspects of digital representations, evolving functionality and extensions into other ecosystems, which enable the user’s anticipation to emerge and evolve. I have defined this as Digital Anticipatory UX (DAUX), which exposes how people’s anticipation continuously evolves through digi-physical use in the everyday context and creates experience before “use”. By showing a methodological approach to investigate these anticipatory experiences, this thesis also offers a starting point for understanding how people’s evolving hopes and fears can provide insights that implicate the creation of innovative future sustainable mobility solutions with people.

Building Collaborative Test Practices : Design Ethnography and WOz in Autonomous Driving Research
- 2018

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article outlines a novel way of performing experimental "Wizard of Oz" (WOz) User Experience (UX) research that specifically targets driving in different levels of self-driving modes. The reasons for exploring the possibilities of combining experimental and ethnographic WOz-testing have been twofold. On the one hand, this mixed-method approach responds to a growing body of critique concerning how the WOz test is biased by the claim that it explores real-life behaviour in an experimental setting. On the other hand, our approach also meets the demands for innovative research methodologies that can contribute to deeper understandings of how to better evaluate and account for human expectations and experiences when automated technologies become integrated in everyday life contexts. This knowledge is inevitable for a broader understanding of the overall user experience and expectations of autonomous driving and, more specifically, building an interdisciplinary collaborative testing approach.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: There is an increasing interest in complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in patients with chronic diseases, including those with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Patients may turn to CAM when conventional therapies are inadequate or associated with side effects for symptomatic relief or to regain control over their disease. The objectives were to explore CAM use and perceived effects in IBD patients in comparison with a control group.METHODS: A cross-sectional, multicenter, controlled study was carried out. IBD patients were invited from 12 IBD clinics in Sweden. Controls were selected randomly from a residence registry. A study-specific questionnaire was used for data collection.RESULTS: Overall, 48.3% of patients with IBD had used some kind of CAM during the past year compared with 53.5% in controls (P=0.025, adjusted for age, sex, geographic residence, and diet). The most frequently used CAM among IBD patients was massage (21.3%), versus controls (31.4%) (adjusted P=0.0003). The second most used CAM was natural products, 18.7% in IBD patients versus 22.3% of the controls (unadjusted P=0.018). In all, 83.1% of the patients experienced positive effects from CAM and 14.4% experienced negative effects.CONCLUSION: Overall, 48.3% of Swedish IBD patients used some kind of CAM and controls used CAM significantly more. Natural products were used by one-fifth of the patients and even more by controls. This is notable from a patient safety perspective considering the possible risks of interactions with conventional medication. In all, 40% of the patients reported adverse events from conventional medicine. Patients experienced predominantly positive effects from CAM, and so did controls.
