Towards Better User Requirements: How to Involve Human Participants in XAI Research

Abstract
Human-Center eXplainable AI (HCXAI) literature identifies the need to address
user needs. This paper examines how existing XAI research involves human users
in designing and developing XAI systems and identifies limitations in current practices, especially regarding how researchers identify user requirements. Finally, we
propose several suggestions on how to derive better user requirements.
