Swetlana Franken’s research while affiliated with Hochschule Bielefeld University of Applied Sciences and Arts and other places

... Die Gestaltung der KI-Anwendungen richtet sich dabei im Wesentlichen immer an den beiden wesentlichen Zielsetzungen der Arbeitswissenschaft aus: die Arbeit mittels der Unterstützung durch KI sowohl menschengerecht als auch effektiv und effizient zu gestalten (Schlick et al., 2018). (Franken et al., 2022) sowie eine Studie zum Status quo des KI-Einsatzes in der Arbeitswelt des industriellen Mittelstands in Ostwestfalen-Lippe (Papenkordt et al., 2022). ...

... The study found no statistically significant differences in attitudes toward AI based on gender, except in the area of supporting learning and teaching processes, where males showed more positive attitudes. This finding suggests that, while there may be some gender-specific differences in certain aspects of AI adoption, overall attitudes toward AI are broadly consistent across genders (Franken and Mauritz, 2021). Similarly, differences based on academic degree were minimal, except for a more favorable attitude toward the benefits of AI in teaching and learning among associate professors. ...

... One of the main findings in this paper is that there is a gender gap with the attitude towards AI and robots, that is consistent with Goswami and Dutta (2016) and He and Freeman (2010). And the reason could be as Franken and Wattenberg (2020) suggested, women are less frequently involved in research and development on AI. ...

... It measures the proportions as ratios or gradients and calculates the amount of repetition to identify dominant ratios [4,39]. Redundancy of proportions reduces the complexity of an objects' appearance (see e.g., [40]) and through the use of the gradient analysis this certain redundancy is quantified. Another example of coordinate-based evaluation of proportional redundancy is the grid analysis [41]. ...

... Demographic change and geopolitical conflicts pose major challenges to work and society as a whole as they have functioned so far. At the same time, ongoing digitalisation is giving rise to new technologies that are profoundly changing organisational and management structures (Franken & Franken, 2020;Helmold, 2022). ...

... Although a majority supports AI development, the demographic largely in favor comprises primarily highly educated and affluent men. Additionally, gender disparities exist in the perception of AI, with women, as per self-awareness assessments, exhibiting a lower understanding of AI compared to men (Franken et al., 2020). Men, in contrast, see more opportunities in AI, rate their own AI competence higher than women, and trust more in AI. ...

... This pattern follows a trend that began in computing research in the 1980s (Fowler 2013). Surveys now directly shape a number of high-stakes AI projects, including finance (Hertzberg, Liberti, and Paravisini 2010), employment (Franken and Wattenberg 2019;Houser 2019), smart healthcare (Morley et al. 2020;Sunarti et al. 2021), transportation (Bharadiya 2023), and education (Blodgett and Madaio 2021;Zanetti, Iseppi, and Cassese 2019;Lünich and Keller 2024). They are also used by companies creating the most popular generative models-often with the embedded assumption that they can capture diverse perspectives and the contextual and cultural specificity of the subject matter, e.g., Collective Intelligence Project (Huang et al. 2024), Our Life with AI (Google 2024), and the Moral Machine experiment, which is "developing global, socially acceptable principles for machine ethics." ...

Surveys Considered Harmful? Reflecting on the Use of Surveys in AI Research, Development, and Governance

... Studies that examined participants' attitudes towards opportunities revealed that women often saw technology, data, and digitalisation as masculine fields. This notion hinders women's enthusiasm for entering these fields (De Vuyst 2018;Franken et al. 2018;Schuster and Martiny 2016) and creates a tendency for women to be less vocal about their technology interests and to downplay their competence in the area (De Vuyst and Raeymaeckers 2019). The masculine construction of technology and digitalisation is also present in concrete ways with regards to women's access to knowledge, their ability to perform work-related tasks and in negative stereotyping and harassment (De Vuyst 2018;Terrell et al. 2017). ...
