Wide framing disposition effect: An empirical study

Crowdsourcing Privacy Design Critique: An Empirical Evaluation of Framing Effects

When designed incorrectly, information systems can thwart people’s expectations of privacy. An emerging technique for evaluating systems during the development stage is the crowdsourcing design critique, in which design evaluations are sourced using crowdsourcing platforms. However, we know that information framing has a serious effect on decisionmaking and can steer design critiques in one way...

Acoustic Environment in the Bus: an Empirical Study

Traffic snarl-up or traffic jam is a common phenomenon in Puri, one of the imperative pilgrimage sites for Hindus as well as a popular tourist destination in India. Traffic congestion inevitably produces traffic noise, in turn annoying the drivers, leading to road rage.

The Effect of on Supply Chain Performance: An Empirical Study

The concept of process maturity proposes that a process has a lifecycle that is measured by the extent to which the process is explicitly defined, managed, measured, controlled and effective. A maturity model assumes that progress comes in stages, ultimately reaching an end goal. The supply chain maturity model is based upon concepts developed by Philip Crosby, who devised a maturity grid for t...

An empirical study of software architectures' effect on product quality

Software architecture is concerned with the structure of software systems and is generally agreed to influence software quality. Even so, little empirical research has been performed on the relationship between software architecture and software quality. Based on 1,141 open source Java projects, we calculate three software architecture metrics (measuring classes per package, normalized distance...
