“…Within the subarea of critical disability studies, the boundaries of dis/ability are systematically troubled and that troubling used as a lens to think through aspects of humanity more generally [61]. Disability can then become part of one's identity [119] not just in the form of self-identification, but also in the form of other-identification [19]. Self-identification constitutes a political move [99], even if the category remains unstable [37].…”

“…For general age groups represented not in number of involved participants, but across instances in the corpus, 53 (80.3%) of papers contextualised games and play for children (ages 2-14), 7 (10.6%) targeted teenagers and adolescents (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25) or adults respectively whereas only one (1.5%) specifically included older adults (70+). Such a distribution indicates an overall infantilisation of not only play as an ageless activity but also one of disability.…”

Play presents a popular pastime for all humans, though not all humans play alike. Subsequently, Human–Computer Interaction Games research is increasingly concerned with the development of games that serve neurodivergent 1 players. In a critical review of 66 publications informed by Disability Studies and Self-Determination Theory, we analyse which populations , research methods, kinds of play and overall purpose goals existing games address. We find that games are largely developed for children, in a top-down approach. They tend to focus on educational and medical settings and are driven by factors extrinsic to neurodivergent interests. Existing work predominantly follows a medical model of disability, which fails to support self-determination of neurodivergent players and marginalises their opportunities for immersion. Our contribution comprises a large-scale investigation into a budding area of research gaining traction with the intent to capture a status quo and identify opportunities for future work attending to differences without articulating them as deficit.

“…While identifying causality may be necessary, to only focus on one quality of responsibility ((2) blame) may mean we are excluding a richer consideration of responsibility's dimensions of (1) duty and (3) acting independently to technical design. Some research has appealed to a greater critical consciousness surrounding the role of the designer and their responsibilities to scrutinise their identity, their choice of their topic area and technical design [1,12]. Bardzell et al and Dombrowski et al have produced frameworks and design considerations to make this introspective process an integral part of the research itself [7,23].…”

This paper provides a critical examination of how digital systems within a charitable organisation in the North of England are being used to both support and challenge male perpetrators of domestic violence. While there exists a range of digital tools to support the victim-survivors of domestic violence, no tools are available to challenge the abusive and harmful behaviours of perpetrators. Through this work, we uncovered the compelling moral responsibilities intrinsic within interactions with technological systems between perpetrators and support workers. As such, we highlight four spaces of negotiation concerning a person's responsibility in changing their abusive behaviour, which we have coined as mechanisms to represent their fundamental and interconnected nature. These mechanisms include selfawareness, acknowledging the extent of harms, providing peer support and respecting authorities. These insights are the basis for offering some practical considerations for HCI scholars, policymakers and intervention designers in their work with perpetrators of violence.

“…Definitions and understanding of disability greatly impact the resulting technologies [18]. Some recent work has taken a more active stance in being explicit about the values and contexts that guide design work [3,6], yet different perspectives bring with them tensions in how design research ultimately connects with and is relevant to the lives of children and their communities. This likely affects other identity markers as well (see, e.g., for race [21]), though those are arguably even more under-researched.…”

However, little research has considered how children's involvement can inform wider design research issues or contribute to related work from different fields such as Childhood Studies, or Learning and Rehabilitation Sciences.…”

What we learn when designing with marginalised children

Designing with marginalised children often produces detailed insights about their lives and communities. Whilst it is possible to extract methodological and artefact-centred knowledge from existing design cases, it can be difficult to utilise and build on some of the more complex and multifaceted issues that these generate, for instance, how researcher decisions inform design outcomes. In this workshop, we invite researchers to reflect on the insights design case studies with marginalized children offer to the larger Children-Computer Interaction (CCI) community. Our goals are to reflect on what kinds of insights are generated; what we as design researchers and practitioners would have wanted to know prior to undertaking such work, and; to identify ways of communicating these insights.
