As a bit of context, both the Dourish and the Greenberg & Buxton papers are commentary on the CHI community, and its emphasis on evaluation. Is it always the case that we need evaluations? Is it appropriate? Dragicevic et al. provide an interesting look into how stats work, and this should be familiar given our explorations with R.
