Une invitation à utiliser la Q-method dans les Recherches en Systèmes d’Information
Mots-clés :
Méthode Q, Q-sort, théorie du concours, subjectivité, individu, organisationsRésumé
Inventée par le psychologue William Stephenson pour explorer la subjectivité humaine dans les années 50, la méthode Q est désormais régulièrement utilisée dans de nombreuses sciences humaines et sociales. La recherche en système d’information semble faire exception, avec seulement 14 études empiriques depuis la première réalisée en 1987. Pourtant, cette méthode présente plusieurs atouts pour explorer des aspects qui sont centraux dans le champ des systèmes d’information : perceptions, interprétations, représentations sociales. L’ambition de cet article est de proposer une vue des possibilités offertes par la méthode Q aux recherches en SI ainsi qu’une illustration de son utilisation sur la question du M-commerce. Il s’agit d’une invitation à partir à la rencontre d’une méthode encore trop souvent méconnue.
