10. Does this actually occur?
YES: “…if [users of computers] have a good idea of what the
computer is designed to do, they can predict this behaviour
with great accuracy and reliability…”
Dennett, D. (1987), The intentional stance, p 17. [emphasis added]
YES: “When users realize that they are not interacting with
autonomous machines, but with a rational product of a human
mind, …”they can resort to a wealth of beliefs and expectations
they have regarding the intellectual and creative behavior of
other people.”
de Souza, C. (1993) The Semiotic Engineering of User Interface Languages,
International Journal of Man-Machine Studies, 39(5): 754.

12. Does this actually occur?
NO: “…humans working with a computer are not orienting to
an unseen programmer but instead are interacting with the
computer as a distinct social actor.”
Sundar, S. & Nass, C., (2000) Source orientation in human-computer interaction,
Communication Research, 27(6): pp 693-694.
BUT: users think about the designer of the system when things
go wrong, and these thoughts are useful when reasoning about
how to put things right

17. RESEARCH QUESTIONS
1. What do people know about design?
2. How does this vary between people?
3. When does design knowledge get used?
4. What effect does it have?
5. What should we do about it?
