Posted on: Tuesday, May 11th, 2010
Broad Research Area: HCI / CSCW, Information Systems / Information Science, Social Computing / Social Informatics

Research Interests:

I am interested in the use of digital technologies, especially social technologies, by citizens to participate in civic and government activities including voting, activism, and political discourse. I am also interested in understanding voters’ strategies for searching information about candidates and issues and how various types of digital information influence the process of voter decision making. I combine empirical research methods in the usability lab and field with design research on novel interfaces and search systems.
