论文摘要
背景：检索和采矿从业者的自我 - 对他们的软件实践经验的报告可以为研究提供宝贵的证据。但是，我们没有意识到该领域进行的任何研究的任何现有研究评论。目的：审查和分类以前的研究，并确定在检索和采矿从业者对软件实践经验的自我报告时所面临的挑战所面临的挑战的见解。方法：我们进行了探索性审查，以识别和分类42篇文章。我们分析了这些文章的选择，以了解有关采矿专业经验挑战的见解。结果：我们仅确定一篇直接相关的文章。即便如此，本文涉及软件专业人员的情感体验，而不是专业人士对软件练习过程中发生的行为和事件的报告。我们讨论有关：专业经验的普遍性；定义，模型和理论；数据的稀疏度；话语分析单位；注释者协议；评估算法的性能；缺乏复制。结论：在该领域似乎没有直接相关的先前研究。我们讨论报告中二级研究负面结果的价值。有多种研究机会，但也面临巨大的挑战。我们为在该领域进行进一步研究的指导问题制定了一套指导问题。
Background: Retrieving and mining practitioners' self--reports of their professional experience of software practice could provide valuable evidence for research. We are, however, unaware of any existing reviews of research conducted in this area. Objective: To review and classify previous research, and to identify insights into the challenges research confronts when retrieving and mining practitioners' self-reports of their experience of software practice. Method: We conduct an exploratory review to identify and classify 42 articles. We analyse a selection of those articles for insights on challenges to mining professional experience. Results: We identify only one directly relevant article. Even then this article concerns the software professional's emotional experiences rather than the professional's reporting of behaviour and events occurring during software practice. We discuss challenges concerning: the prevalence of professional experience; definitions, models and theories; the sparseness of data; units of discourse analysis; annotator agreement; evaluation of the performance of algorithms; and the lack of replications. Conclusion: No directly relevant prior research appears to have been conducted in this area. We discuss the value of reporting negative results in secondary studies. There are a range of research opportunities but also considerable challenges. We formulate a set of guiding questions for further research in this area.
