Abstract EN
User modeling and profiling has been used to evaluate systems and predict user behaviors for a considerable time.
Models and profiles are generally constructed based on studies of users’ behavior patterns, cognitive characteristics, or demographic data and provide an efficient way to present users’ preferences and interests.
However, such modeling focuses on users’ interactions with a system and cannot support complicated social interaction, which is the emerging focus of serious games, educational hypermedia systems, experience, and service design.
On the other hand, personas are used to portray and represent different groups and types of users and help designers propose suitable solutions in iterative design processes.
However, clear guidelines and research approaches for developing useful personas for large-scale and complex social networks have not been well established.
In this research, we reflect on three different design studies related to social interaction, experience, and cross-platform service design to discuss multiple ways of identifying both direct users and invisible users in design research.
In addition, research methods and attributes to portray users are discussed.
