Sensitizing Concepts

敏感性概念（源自 Blumer 的扎根理论），指为研究者提供大致参照与方向感的概念，并不规定该看什么、如何严格归类。

English Definition

"Concepts (from Blumer's grounded theory) that give a general sense of reference and guidance for approaching empirical instances, without specifying what to see or how to categorize definitively."

用法说明 · 针对中文母语者

在设计与 HCI 定性研究中，常作为 framework 能提供'软引导'的形式。注意区别于 definitive concepts（定义性概念）。中文文献常直接保留英文。

常见错误

·字面机翻为'敏感化概念'或'使敏感的概念'，丢失其方法学内涵
·和 heuristic、framework 混用
