Method As the basis of this study, we chose the PD projects that were reported at
conferences sponsored by IFIP Working Group 9.1 (Computers and Work). There were
several reasons for this. WG9. 1 has played an important role in bringing together
researchers in this field, particularly to the Systems Design For, With, and By Users
Conference held in 1982 [4]. Several subsequent conferences also provided forums where
participatory initiatives have been reported [7, 9, 20, 21, 23, 24]. These projects span the …

WG9. 1 has played an important role in bringing together researchers in this field, particularly to the Systems Design For, With, and By Users Conference held in 1982 [4]. Several subsequent conferences also provided forums where participatory initiatives have been reported [7, 9, 20, 21, 23, 24]. These projects span the 1970s and 1980s and reflect many of the most prominent experiments in PD. Altogether reports from 10 countries--Austria, Australia, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany (formerly East and West), Italy, Norway, Sweden, and the UK--were presented.
