Beyond relative advantage: factors in end-user uptake of computer supported cooperative working. (2003)
Book Chapter
Turner, S., & Turner, P. (2003). Beyond relative advantage: factors in end-user uptake of computer supported cooperative working. In Advanced Topics in End User Computing II (18-43). Idea Press

Researchers in Information Systems have produced a rich collection of metaanalyses and models of factors influencing the uptake of information technologies. In the domain of CSCW, however, these models have largely been neglected, and while there are...

Activity theory: another perspective on task analysis. (2003)
Book Chapter
Turner, P., & McEwan, T. (2003). Activity theory: another perspective on task analysis. In D. Diaper, & N. Stanton (Eds.), The Handbook of Task Analysis for Human-Computer Interaction (423-444). CRC Press

In this chapter, we introduce activity theory, describing its origins and its principal researchers and thinkers. We stress its descriptive power and its usefulness in defining uniquely a unit of analysis for work. We contrast its development with th...

Evaluating soundscapes as a means of creating a sense of place (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Turner, P., McGregor, I., Turner, S., & Carroll, F. (2003). Evaluating soundscapes as a means of creating a sense of place.

We report an empirical study into the creation of, and response to, a soundscape of a computer centre. We contrast the use of presence questionnaires, as means of assessing the sense of being-there, against a more phenomenological approach. We con...

Recreating the Botanics: towards a sense of place in virtual environments. (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Turner, S., Turner, P., Carroll, F., O'Neill, S., Benyon, D., McCall, R., & Smyth, M. (2003, June). Recreating the Botanics: towards a sense of place in virtual environments. Paper presented at 3rd UK Conference of the Environmental Psychology Network

The EC funded project BENOGO seeks to re-create real places using photo-realistic immersive virtual reality technology and in so doing investigates the nature of presence and sense of place in such environments. We discuss the first stages in our... Read More about Recreating the Botanics: towards a sense of place in virtual environments..

Two phenomenological studies of place. (2003)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Turner, P., & Turner, S. (2003, January). Two phenomenological studies of place. Paper presented at BCS- HCI Conference 2003

We introduce our initial investigations into the phenomenology of place as part of the BENOGO project. BENOGO is concerned with giving people the experience of ‘being there without going there’. Employing a state-of-the-art mixture of photorealist... Read More about Two phenomenological studies of place..
