User models are a key component for user-adaptive systems They represent information about users such as interests, expertise, goals, traits, etc This information is used to achieve various adaptation effects, e.g., recommending relevant documents or products To ensure acceptance by users, these models need to be scrutable, i.e., users must be able to view and alter them to understand and if necessary correct the assumptions the system makes about the user However, in most existing systems, this goal is not met In this paper, we introduce IntrospectiveViews, an interface that enables the user to view and edit her user model Furthermore, we present the results of a formative evaluation that show the importance users give in general to different aspects of scrutable user models and also substantiate our claim that IntrospectiveViews is an appropriate realization of an interface to such models.
