“…Although there might also be a PROBE reliability issue (mentioned in [55]), we suspect that the inconsistency is mainly due to that our students lacked real-world experience (as compared to Wesslén's study) and that a significant effect could not be achieved through a short period of time (i.e. requiring a longer learning curve) for planning and estimation training.…”

“…Moreover, even when the PSP estimating techniques are used over an extensive period of time -e.g., five years -some fluctuation in the size and effort estimation accuracy still may exist. [12]. However, the ability to improve already in the learning phase works as a motivational factor in regard to the post-course use of the PSP method.…”

The focus of the research and practice in software process improvement (SPI) is shifting from traditional large-scale assessment based improvement initiatives to smaller sized, tailored initiatives where the emphasis is on the development personnel and their personal abilities. Personal software process (PSP SM ) is a method designed for improving the personal capabilities of the individual software engineer. This paper contributes to the body of knowledge within this area by reporting experiences from Denmark. The findings indicate an improvement in effort estimation skills and an increase in the resulting product quality in terms of reduced total defect density. The data shows that even with a relatively small effort (i.e., 10%) used in defect prevention activities (i.e., design and code reviews) almost one third of all defects could be removed and, consequently, the time required for the testing was reduced by 50%. On the basis of this data, the use of the PSP method in the software industry is discussed.
