title = "Proxy technology assessment as a multi-method approach for identifying social requirements of co-creative media",
abstract = "The traditional user-oriented approach in technology design focuses on the individual user and context requirements, often only resulting in usability recommendations. However, this approach does not fully capture the social dimension, and therefore overlooks the social aspects that could have a strong impact on the use and adoption of the application under development. Hence we introduce the concept of 'social requirements' in the development process. In order to be able to get feedback from the users in an early phase of the development process and simultaneously study the social dimension, we apply the proxy technology assessment (PTA) in a living lab environment. This approach equips test users with proxy technologies (that resemble the technologies under development) in their natural environment. In this paper we illustrate the use of this method to detect social requirements for an online community platform.",
