Sociotechnical Arrangements
社会-技术配置，源于社会技术系统理论（sociotechnical systems theory），指将社会要素（人、角色、关系、规范）与技术要素（工具、物件、基础设施）交织起来以支撑工作与协作的整体性配置；在 CSCW 中是核心理论概念。
English Definition
"Configurations that interweave social (people, roles, relationships, norms) and technical (tools, artifacts, infrastructures) elements to support work and collaboration; a core concept in CSCW originating from sociotechnical systems theory."
用法说明 · 针对中文母语者

常见错误
- ·漏掉 'socio' 前缀写成 'technical arrangements'
- ·误译为「社会安排」或「技术安排」——它强调两者不可分割的交织关系
