> For over 25 years, the ACM International Conference on Supporting GroupWork
> (GROUP) has been a premier venue for research on Computer Supported
> Cooperative Work, Human Computer Interaction, Computer Supported
> Collaborative Learning and Socio-Technical Studies. The conference
> integrates work in social science, computer science, engineering, design,
> values, and other diverse topics related to group work, broadly
> conceptualized. Group 2018 continues the tradition of being truly
> international and interdisciplinary in both organizational structure as
> well as participants.
>
>
>
> Key goals for the program are to encourage and facilitate researchers
> within CSCW and HCI to interact across disciplinary boundaries. We
> encourage high-level research contributions from interdisciplinary groups to
> present work that might be difficult to place within one simple category.
> We are open to diverse and innovative research methods, and to
> contributions across broad areas such as systems, society, participation,
> critique, collaboration, and human interaction. GROUP 2018 in particular
> would like to encourage systems designers, builders, and researchers from
> industry, academia, government and other interested groups to participate.
> Participation at GROUP takes many different forms. In 2018, we will
> continue two new submissions categories that were introduced in 2016.
> First, GROUP 2018 will again offer the opportunity to authors of newly
> published papers from the Journal of CSCW (http://link.springer.com/
> journal/10606) to present their papers in the conference. Second, the
> submission category ?Design Fictions? will be maintained.
>
>
>
> Submissions to the conference are welcome in the form of:
>
>
>
> ? *Research Papers* (both short and long). This venue gives the
> occasion to present and interact with the audience. Accepted papers will be
> published in the Conference Proceedings and ACM Digital Library. Please use
> the ACM SIGCHI format for submissions. We invite archival submissions in
> the form of either full Papers or shorter contributions (Notes). A Note is
> a brief report of a more limited, but definitive, outcome or theoretical
> development. There is no page limit for Papers or Notes, although clear
> rationale should be given for Papers that exceed 10 pages or for Notes that
> exceed 4 pages. Research Paper submissions must be completed online at
> https://new.precisionconference.com/group.
>
> ? *Working Papers* (WP) are contributions in which the authors are
> working towards an archival journal submission and would like to discuss
> their work with their colleagues at GROUP. Our goal is to broaden the
> conversations at GROUP, with a format that may appeal to colleagues whose
> primary publications are in journals, rather than conference papers. WPs
> will not be published in the conference proceedings, but will be
> distributed in a paper conference supplement at the GROUP conference for
> the attendees only. Therefore, you are free to seek formal publication of a
> draft journal submission that appears in a WP. The WP review process will
> be *lightweight*, without any revisions asked to the authors, to expand the
> GROUPcommunity and discussions. Please send submissions directly to
> co-chairs at wp at group2018.org.
>
> ? *Design Fictions ? Fictive Futures*. Exploring Future Research
> Agendas. We seek submissions that imagine possible futures for research on
> the relationships between computers and people. Submissions will include
> two portions: a fictional document related to the conduct of research and
> an author statement about the document. The fiction document could be an
> extended abstract, a call for papers, an excerpt from API documentation, a
> book review, a study protocol for IRB review, or any other relevant type.
> The author statement should connect that document to current events, cite
> ongoing research in the field, or otherwise extrapolate how the envisioned
> future might arise from our given present. This statement will be
> especially important for abstracts (which are too short to explain their
> rationale), API documentations (which typically do not provide a historical
> rationale), and other documents that on their own may be exceptionally
> short and/or vague. Because Design Fictions are archival contributions, we
> recommend a minimum length of 3 pages, and as many as 10 pages. Please use
> the ACM SIGCHI Format for submissions. The reviewing process will be the
> same as the general track, and Design Fiction papers or notes will be
> included in the proceedings. Design Fiction submissions must be completed
> online at https://new.precisionconference.com/group.
>
>
>
> ? *Posters and demos*. Posters and demos are an opportunity to
> present late-breaking and preliminary results, smaller results not suitable
> for a Paper or Note submission, innovative ideas not yet validated through
> user studies, student research in early phases, and other research best
> presented in this open format. Posters and demos will be displayed at a
> special session in the conference when poster and demo authors will be
> available to discuss their work. Poster submissions should include an
> extended abstract no longer than 4 pages, including all figures and
> references, in ACM SIGCHI Format (available here
> <http://www.sigchi.org/publications/chipubform>). In addition, submissions
> should also include a separate Tabloid (A3 or 11 x 17 inches) sized draft
> of the poster for review purposes. Both the extended abstract and the
> poster draft should include author names (these are not anonymous
> submissions). Please send submissions directly to co-chairs at
> posters at group2018.org.
>
> ? *Workshops*. Workshops provide an informal and focused
> environment for the information exchange and discussion ofGroup related
> topics. We offer half or full day workshop venues. Proposals should include
> an abstract (max 150 words), a title, description of workshop theme, aim,
> goals, activities and potential outcomes. It should also specify
> audio/visual equipment needed, maximum number of participants, the duration
> of the workshop (half or full day) and the names and backgrounds of the
> organizer(s). Please submit a maximum of four pages, using the ACM SIGCHI
> format <http://www.sigchi.org/publications/chipubform> for submissions. We
> encourage topics suitable for developing new ideas and deep discussions.
> Please send submissions directly to co-chairs at workshops at group2018.org.
>
>
>
> ? *Doctoral Colloquium*. The Doctoral Colloquium provides a forum
> for sharing ongoing Ph.D. projects of participants with other advanced
> Ph.D. students and distinguished faculty for mentoring and feedback. Space
> is limited, so an application of up to four pages is required, in the ACM
> standard format <http://www.sigchi.org/publications/chipubform>. Please
> contact the workshop co-chairs at dc at group2018.org.

> A growing community of researchers is excited about the prospects
> offered by multilevel modelling. However, there is still no clear
> consensus on what this new paradigm actually entails and how it should
> be applied. For example, there are different views on whether it is
> sound to combine instance facets and type facets into so-called
> clabjects, whether strict metamodeling is too restrictive, and what tool
> architectures provide the best framework for modelling with multiple
> classification levels. This lack of a foundational consensus is mirrored
> by the lack of a common focus in current multilevel tools.

> The goal of MULTI 2017
> (https://www.wi-inf.uni-duisburg-essen.de/MULTI2017), which takes place
> in Austin as part of the Models Conference (Sept. 17th-22nd), is to
> address these challenges and continue the community building established
> in the previous workshops. In particular, the goal is to encourage the
> community to delineate different approaches to multi-level modelling and
> define objective ways to evaluate their respective strengths/weaknesses.
> One key way of addressing this goal is to identify standard/canonical
> examples specially designed to exercise the abilities of multilevel
> modelling approaches. We encourage submissions on new concepts,
> implementation approaches and formalisms as well as submissions on
> controversial positions, requirements for evaluation criteria or
> case-study scenarios. Contributions in the area of tool building,
> multilevel modelling applications, canonical examples and educational
> material are equally welcome.
>
> Possible topics include, but are not restricted to:
>
> the exact nature and semantics of elements in a multilevel
> hierarchy and how best to represent them
> the importance and role of potency and its variants such a
> durability and mutability
> transitioning from traditional modelling approaches/tools to
> multi-level approaches
> engineering domain-specific languages and complete tool support
> methods for designing multilevel models
> formal approaches to multilevel modelling
> experiences and challenges in providing tool support for multilevel
> modelling
> experiences and challenges in applying multilevel modelling
> techniques to large and/or real world problems
> model management languages (transformation, code generation etc.)
> in a multi-level setting
> comparisons of multilevel and two-level solutions for modelling
> problems
> criteria for comparing multilevel modelling approaches and

> canonical multi-level modelling examples and challenges
> distinct and multiple viewpoints on multilevel models
> methods for developing multilevel systems and languages
> the management of changes in multilevel models
> innovative systems architectures enabled by multilevel languages
> multilevel modelling versus knowledge engineering and ontologies

> Abstract
>
> There has been significant debate in the literature on technology-mediated
> training about the appropriate role of learner control. We define learner
> control as giving trainees the ability to make choices about how they
> proceed through the learning environment. We explore two perspectives.
> First, we consider learners' stated preferences for the extent of control in
> the learning environment. Second, we analyze the actual online learning
> behaviors of 518 trainees in a Fortune 500 organization. We compare a
> measure of learner control preferences to the most commonly used framework
> of learner control that comprises five dimensions: pace of instruction,
> sequence of topics, specific content covered, amount of advice/feedback
> provided, and type of media. We also compare the dimensionality of learner
> behaviors to this framework and examine the relationship between learner
> preferences and learner behaviors. Results suggest that fewer dimensions can
> capture both learner preferences and behaviors than what the literature
> currently suggests. Specifically, media control aligned with both pace and
> content control. The relationship between stated learner control preferences
> and learner control behaviors was relatively weak. However, we found support
> for the recently identified dimension of scheduling control and suggest a
> new learner control dimension of performance control, consistent with the
> importance of practice retrieval for learning.

> Abstract
>
> Using social media is the most common activity on the Internet, and much
> research has examined the phenomenon. While the current literature focuses
> on the positives of using social media, there is a comparative lack of
> research on its negative effects, especially in the context of the
> workplace. Research has identified one critical negative impact of
> contemporary technology as technostress, which refers to stress induced by
> information and communication technologies. In this paper, we apply
> distraction-conflict theory (DCT) to the literature on social media,
> technostress, and addiction to theorize that one can view social media in
> the workplace as a distraction conflict, which, in turn, can induce
> technostress and, subsequently, Internet addiction. To test this theoretical
> model, we conducted a survey on 1731 participants recruited from Mechanical
> Turk. The survey examined the similarities and differences between two
> popular social media platforms: Facebook and YouTube. Overall, the results
> provide support for positive associations between the distraction felt from
> social media and social media-induced technostress and between social media-
> induced technostress and Internet addiction. While Facebook and YouTube have
> similarities, we found notable differences as well. This study contributes
> to the IS field by using DCT as a novel and valuable lens through which
> researchers and practitioners can think about the negative effects of using
> social media at work. The paper also offers insight into implications for
> research, practice, and future research areas.

> Abstract
>
> Organizations often offer software trials to potential buyers as a form of
> promotion. The trial experience provides first- hand information of the
> product, which contributes to prudent purchase decisions. Despite the
> popularity of software trials in consumer markets, we have yet to fully
> understand how individuals formulate purchase decisions throughout the trial
> process. This study proposes a novel perspective by focusing on 1) decision
> confidence that individuals establish when using a software trial based on
> the compatible cognitive stopping rules (CSRs) they apply and 2) the
> influence of decision confidence on purchase intention. We conducted a
> controlled lab experiment in which 204 participants tried an interior design
> software product. We found that the participants formed their decision
> confidence by applying compatible CSRs during the software trial. Decision
> confidence augmented the positive influence of product satisfaction on
> purchase decision. Interestingly, decision confidence attenuated the
> positive relationship between a user's satisfactory trial experience and the
> decision to purchase the software. We provide detailed discussions on our
> findings, limitations, theoretical contributions, and implications for
> practice.

> Abstract
>
> Egon Brunswik coined and defined the concepts of ecological validity and
> representative design, which are both essential to achieve external
> validity. However, research in HCI has inconsistently and incorrectly used
> Brunswik's concept of ecological validity, which prevents the field from
> developing cumulative science and from generalizing the findings of user
> experience (UX) evaluations. In this paper, I present ECOVAL, a framework I
> built on Brunswik's ideas. On the one hand, ECOVAL helps HCI researchers
> describe and assess the ecological validity of cues in UX evaluations. On
> the other hand, ECOVAL guidelines-formulated as a step-by-step
> procedure-help HCI researchers achieve representative design and, therefore,
> increase external validity. An industrial case study demonstrates the
> relevance of ECOVAL for achieving representative design while conducting
> formative UX testing. In discussing the case study, I describe how ECOVAL
> can help HCI researchers assess and increase the validity of UX experiments
> and generalize UX findings. I also illustrate the trade-offs between
> internal and external validities and UX resources that inevitably arise when
> one conducts UX experiments. From the results, I sketch avenues for future
> research and discuss the related challenges that future work should address.
