Abstract

This SIG will provide child-computer interaction researchers and practitioners, as well as other interested CHI attendees, an opportunity to discuss topics related to conducting ethical research on emerging technologies for children. While the community has extensively debated on ethical issues, we have not had ample discussion of how to ethically manage research on emerging technologies, often designed for adults, that may also be used by children or affect children. More specifically, we would like to discuss ethical aspects related to motivations for research, how research is conducted, and how it is reported. We hope these discussions will go well beyond legal requirements from ethics boards and help provide foundational guidance for research on emerging technologies with children, but also inform similar research with other vulnerable communities.
