Which HCI Lab in South Korea Fits Best for Me? : Designing an HCI Lab Browsing System to Support Prospective Students’ Decision-Making Process

Prospective students looking for a human-computer interaction (HCI) laboratory that fits their needs and goals go through a challenging decision-making process. Often, labs and their body of work are ambiguous to the student. In this study, we aim to (1) design an HCI Lab browsing system named and (2) investigate how the system supports decision making. We designed a system that can browse laboratories through research topics based on author-defined keyword (ADK) data from publications. We then conducted a user study, including an information browsing task and in-depth interviews. Findings show that our system supported decision making in (1) identifying what to look for at the initial stage and (2) developing one's own criteria by gaining saliency of the field at the drill-down stage. Our findings provide empirical understanding regarding decision-making theory and presents a new browsing system that organizes scattered and unstandardized information.
