Understanding Fairness in Software Engineering: Insights from Stack Exchange Sites

Year: 2024

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Software practitioners often discuss technical and social workplace issues, both in-person and online. One such social issue is fairness. As research on fairness in software engineering expands, it often concentrates on specific issues. This exploratory study provides discussions on Stack Exchange sites, focusing on the experiences and expectations of fairness in software engineering. We also want to identify the fairness aspects software practitioners talk about the most. For example, do they care more about fairness in income or how they are treated in the workplace?
