- A survey of computational location privacy (2009, background): “Based on numerous opinion surveys, Westin famously grouped people into categories of privacy fundamentalists, privacy pragmatists, and privacy unconcerneds [39].”
- Using ordered attitudinal indicators in a latent variable choice model: a study of the impact of security on rail travel behaviour (2011, methodology): “Respondents were also asked a series of questions about their attitudes towards privacy known as the ‘Distrust Index’ developed by Dr. Alan Westin (Kumaraguru and Cranor 2005; Louis Harris et al. 1994).”
- Moving beyond untagging: photo privacy in a tagged world (2010, methodology): “We used Westin’s 2003 privacy segmentation index [11] to classify participants as fundamentalist ( n = 10) , pragmatist ( n = 6) , or privacy unconcerned ( n = 1) .”
- Modeling Users' Mobile App Privacy Preferences: Restoring Usability in a Sea of Permission Settings (2014, unknown): “This cluster of participants also reminds us of the privacy pragmatist group identified by Westin in producing privacy We also overlay the cluster names on the dendrogram which will be explained in Section 6.1. indexes [67].”
- Engineering Privacy (2009, background): “Studies show that users differ in the degree and focus of their privacy concerns [52], [61].”
- Expectation and purpose: understanding users' mental models of mobile app privacy through crowdsourcing (2012, unknown): “This cluster of participants also reminds us of the privacy pragmatist group identified by Westin in producing privacy We also overlay the cluster names on the dendrogram which will be explained in Section 6.1. indexes [67].”
