Abstract

In this research, a mobile time management application was developed and tested on 5 Chinese and 5 French students of a university in China through some basic manipulations of the prototype and a personal interview in order to gain insights on cultural differences between French and Chinese time management practices. It was shown that the interviewees were late depending on the events' priority, but the priorit is different for Chinese and French students. Chinese students tend to change meeting times more frequently; therefore they often double-check meetings for confirmation. Design guidelines for time management applications can be deducted from these observations.
