This page provides information about research projects conducted by the CredibilityCommons group. Our research studies are closely tied to our software tools. Existing knowledge and new findings about people’s individual and collaborative behavior pertaining their use and assessment of information, transactions, and social relationships online are translated into tool development.

In turn, our software tools are evaluated empirically and aim at following a community development model. Check out the software page for a list of these, and the publications page for additional investigations and the annual report summarizing our empirical studies.

Partner Projects

We are also collaborating with partners in research and industry to expand our suite of credibility tools. See our list of current partner projects.
