For over two decades, information systems researchers have grappled with defining what constitutes good design science research. With too many older papers simply documenting the development of systems without a clear message of the contribution to science, design science fell out of favor with the information systems discipline. With the emergence of intelligent systems and the re-shaping of knowledge work, substantial effort has recently focused on articulating what constitutes a design science research contribution. In recent years, however, the discussion on the role of behavioral theory and behavioral research in complementing design science research has faded away. In this paper, we argue for a broader view on the synergies of behavioral and design science research with an emphasis on the greater role that behavioral science can take in shaping and validating design science research and motivating future research. We use the INSOLVE program of research as a proof of concept for how this synergistic relationship can be leveraged.

二十多年来，信息系统研究人员一直在努力定义什么是好的设计科学研究。由于过多的旧论文只是简单地记录了系统的开发，而没有明确说明对科学的贡献，设计科学在信息系统学科中失宠。随着智能系统的出现和知识工作的重塑，最近大量的努力集中在阐明什么构成了设计科学研究的贡献。然而，近年来，关于行为理论和行为研究在补充设计科学研究中的作用的讨论逐渐消失。在本文中，我们主张对行为和设计科学研究的协同作用有更广泛的看法，强调行为科学在塑造和验证设计科学研究以及激励未来研究方面可以发挥更大的作用。我们使用 INSOLVE 研究计划作为如何利用这种协同关系的概念证明。
