Lecture date: 12 November 2018
Abstract:
Natural and social sciences study phenomena of the current world and try to answer questions on how the world works. In contrast, design research is a science of the artificial, trying to answer questions like ‘How can the world be changed?’ Yet, design research is still lacking a holistic construal of how to theorize and to empirically test design theories. UT’s Chair of Product-Market Relations explores to what extent “emergence” can be a leading criterion in design research and develops confirmatory composite analysis as a statistical tool. A series of computational experiments is applied to examine the efficacy of confirmatory composite analysis, and helps derive characteristics such as statistical power.
Short bio:
Jörg Henseler is Professor of Product-Market Relations and head of the Department of Design, Production & Management at the Faculty of Engineering Technology of the University of Twente, Enschede, The Netherlands; Visiting Professor at NOVA Information Management School, Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal; and Distinguished Invited Professor in the Department of Business Administration and Marketing at the University of Seville, Spain. His current research focuses on bridging marketing and design research.
