Process-based integrated assessment models (IAMs) project long-term transformation pathways in energy and land-use systems under what-if assumptions. IAM evaluation is necessary to improve the models’ usefulness as scientific tools applicable in the complex and contested domain of climate change mitigation. We contribute the first comprehensive synthesis of process-based IAM evaluation research, drawing on a wide range of examples across six different evaluation methods including historical simulations, stylised facts, and model diagnostics. For each evaluation method, we identify progress and milestones to date, and draw out lessons learnt as well as challenges remaining. We find that each evaluation method has distinctive strengths, as well as constraints on its application. We use these insights to propose a systematic evaluation framework combining multiple methods to establish the appropriateness, interpretability, credibility, and relevance of process-based IAMs as useful scientific tools for informing climate policy. We also set out a programme of evaluation research to be mainstreamed both within and outside the IAM community.
Wandlungsfähigkeit beschreibt die Fähigkeit eines Systems, proaktiv oder reaktiv Maßnahmen für die Modifikation seiner Eigenschaften schnell und effizient zu entwickeln, umzusetzen und anzuwenden sowie sich proaktiv darauf vorzubereiten, inaktiv zu sein und passiv Einwirkungen aus der Umwelt zu tolerieren. Die Eigenschaften wandlungsfähiger Systeme werden häufig als Indikatoren (z.B. Modularität, Wissen) verwendet. Dabei existiert eine Vielzahl potenzieller Indikatoren, deren jeweilige Relevanz jedoch ungeklärt ist. Hier setzt die Zielstellung der vorliegenden Arbeit an. Das Erkenntnisziel ist die Erklärung der Wandlungsfähigkeit sozio-technischer Systeme. Zu diesem Zweck wird ein Erklärungsmodell der indikatorbasierten Wandlungsfähigkeit erstellt, das zum Nachweis von Wandlungsfähigkeit, zur Bewertung dieser sowie zur Systemanalyse genutzt werden kann. Weiterhin wird exemplarisch eine positive Korrelation von Wandlungsfähigkeit und Schnelligkeit sowie Effizienz bei Veränderungsprojekten nachgewiesen.
With the growth of information technology, patient attitudes are shifting – away from passively receiving care towards actively taking responsibility for their well- being. Handling doctor-patient relationships collaboratively and providing patients access to their health information are crucial steps in empowering patients. In mental healthcare, the implicit consensus amongst practitioners has been that sharing medical records with patients may have an unpredictable, harmful impact on clinical practice. In order to involve patients more actively in mental healthcare processes, Tele-Board MED (TBM) allows for digital collaborative documentation in therapist-patient sessions. The TBM software system offers a whiteboard-inspired graphical user interface that allows therapist and patient to jointly take notes during the treatment session. Furthermore, it provides features to automatically reuse the digital treatment session notes for the creation of treatment session summaries and clinical case reports. This thesis presents the development of the TBM system and evaluates its effects on 1) the fulfillment of the therapist’s duties of clinical case documentation, 2) patient engagement in care processes, and 3) the therapist-patient relationship. Following the design research methodology, TBM was developed and tested in multiple evaluation studies in the domains of cognitive behavioral psychotherapy and addiction care. The results show that therapists are likely to use TBM with patients if they have a technology-friendly attitude and when its use suits the treatment context. Support in carrying out documentation duties as well as fulfilling legal requirements contributes to therapist acceptance. Furthermore, therapists value TBM as a tool to provide a discussion framework and quick access to worksheets during treatment sessions. Therapists express skepticism, however, regarding technology use in patient sessions and towards complete record transparency in general. Patients expect TBM to improve the communication with their therapist and to offer a better recall of discussed topics when taking a copy of their notes home after the session. Patients are doubtful regarding a possible distraction of the therapist and usage in situations when relationship-building is crucial. When applied in a clinical environment, collaborative note-taking with TBM encourages patient engagement and a team feeling between therapist and patient. Furthermore, it increases the patient’s acceptance of their diagnosis, which in turn is an important predictor for therapy success. In summary, TBM has a high potential to deliver more than documentation support and record transparency for patients, but also to contribute to a collaborative doctor-patient relationship. This thesis provides design implications for the development of digital collaborative documentation systems in (mental) healthcare as well as recommendations for a successful implementation in clinical practice.
Modern production infrastructures of globally operating companies usually consist of multiple distributed production sites. While the organization of individual sites consisting of Industry 4.0 components itself is demanding, new questions regarding the organization and allocation of resources emerge considering the total production network. In an attempt to face the challenge of efficient distribution and processing both within and across sites, we aim to provide a hybrid simulation approach as a first step towards optimization. Using hybrid simulation allows us to include real and simulated concepts and thereby benchmark different approaches with reasonable effort. A simulation concept is conceptualized and demonstrated qualitatively using a global multi-site example.
Dieser Band der Reihe „Potsdamer Geographische Praxis“ enthält drei Beiträge, die sich mit dem Handlungskonzept „Tolerantes Brandenburg“ der Brandenburgischen Landesregierung befassen. In allen Beiträgen wird auf der Grundlage empirischer Erhebungen analysiert, wie dieses Konzept zum Umgang mit Rechtsextremismus und Rechtspopulismus sowie zur Demokratieförderung in den letzten Jahren umgesetzt wurde. Die ersten beiden Beiträge haben die sogenannten Zukunftsdialoge „Tolerantes Brandenburg“ zum Gegenstand, die in den Jahren 2015 bis 2017 in allen kreisfreien Städten und Landkreisen Brandenburgs durchgeführt wurden. Der erste Beitrag von Schubarth, Kohlstruck und Rolfes beinhaltet die Ergebnisse der wissenschaftlichen Beobachtung der Zukunftsdialoge; die Ergebnisse beruhen überwiegend auf teilnehmenden Beobachtungen der Zukunftsdialoge und qualitativen Interviews mit Teilnehmenden. Der zweite Beitrag von Bode und Rolfes basiert auf einer quantitativen Methodik und enthält die Auswertungen einer standardisierten Befragung der Teilnehmer/innen der Zukunftsdialoge. Die Ergebnisse beider Untersuchungen liefern wichtige Erkenntnisse und gute Ansatzpunkte, wie einerseits die Institutionen des Beratungsnetzwerks „Tolerantes Brandenburg“ und das Handlungskonzept auf lokaler Ebene eine größere Bekanntheit erlangen könnten und andererseits, welche Schritte hilfreich wären, um eine (noch) stärkere Verankerung des Handlungskonzeptes in den Regionen zu erreichen. Beim dritten Beitrag von Schubarth, Kohlstruck und Rolfes handelt es sich eine Expertise aus dem Jahr 2019. Der Beitrag liefert einen mehrdimensionalen Blick auf das Handlungskonzept aus unterschiedlichen internen wie externen Perspektiven. Dabei wird vor allem auf die gesellschaftlichen und politischen Veränderungen fokussiert, die sich seit 2014 im Handlungsfeld „Demokratiestärkung und Auseinandersetzung mit dem Rechtsextremismus“ ergeben haben. Grundlage der Expertise waren leitfadenzentrierte Interviews.
Purpose: The concepts of creativity and intuition have been well studied in isolation, but less is known about their distinctive contributions to option generation in decision making. Method: We examined the relation between creative and intuitive decision making in two studies-one involving coaches and one involving soccer players-using video footage of real soccer matches. Additionally, we analyzed whether this relation is culture generic or culture specific by conducting matched cross-cultural studies in a European and a South American country. Results: In Study 1, results indicate a conceptual overlap of creativity and intuition for Brazilian and German soccer coaches. Furthermore, coaches did not differ in their evaluation of creative and intuitive actions of players of both cultures. In Study 2, we found that for both subsamples the total number of generated options was positively correlated with the quality of the first and the final option and that the quality of players' first (intuitive) option was higher than that of options generated later. Moreover, results indicate a positive correlation between a player's creativity score and the quality of the first generated option for the whole sample. Conclusion: Overall, our findings provide meaningful information regarding athletes' and coaches' option-generation processes in decision making in complex team sports.
We investigate how the technology acceptance and learning experience of the digital education platform HPI Schul-Cloud (HPI School Cloud) for German secondary school teachers can be improved by proposing a user-centered research and development framework. We highlight the importance of developing digital learning technologies in a user-centered way to take differences in the requirements of educators and students into account. We suggest applying qualitative and quantitative methods to build a solid understanding of a learning platform's users, their needs, requirements, and their context of use. After concept development and idea generation of features and areas of opportunity based on the user research, we emphasize on the application of a multi-attribute utility analysis decision-making framework to prioritize ideas rationally, taking results of user research into account. Afterward, we recommend applying the principle build-learn-iterate to build prototypes in different resolutions while learning from user tests and improving the selected opportunities. Last but not least, we propose an approach for continuous short- and long-term user experience controlling and monitoring, extending existing web- and learning analytics metrics.
