Addressing and integrating human values into AI design and
development processes in research and practice can be dicult, and a
clear methodological approach can clarify issues of both theory and prac-
tice. One such approach is Value Sensitive Design (VSD), an established
theory for addressing issues of values in a systematic and principled fash-
ion in the design of information technology. However, it is unclear how
VSD is translated into current design practices and whether it has been
integrated into existing methodologies. In this paper, we investigated
whether and to what extent VSD has passed down into design method-
ologies used in practice. We found that the actual application of VSD in
methodologies is limited, but that in the last few years, steps have been
taken to bridge the gap between theory and practice.
