for end-users [5]. Understanding end-users in engineering maycontribute to market success, as a majority of innovative breakthrough products involve noveluser interfaces [6]. Further, the established design process guides published by Stanford d.school[7] and IDEO [8] place empathy among the first steps to take when aiming for innovation. As forself-efficacy, it is currently hypothesized that it influences an engineer’s interest and ability tocarry out tasks associated with innovativeness [9], such as open-minded design exploration [10].However, despite educators attempting to teach empathy [11], [12] and innovation self-efficacyto engineering students, there is little understanding as to whether students develop either ofthese mindsets.
