Background: A growing amount of software is available to children today.Children use both software that has been explicitly developed for them andsoftware for general users. While they obtain clear benefits from software,such as access to creativity tools and learning resources, children are alsoexposed to several risks and disadvantages, such as privacy violation,inactivity, or safety risks that can even lead to death. The research anddevelopment community is addressing and investigating positive and negativeimpacts of software for children one by one, but no comprehensive model existsthat relates software engineering and children as stakeholders in their ownright. Aims: The final objective of this line of research is to proposeeffective ways in which children can be involved in Software Engineeringactivities as stakeholders. Specifically, in this paper, we investigate thequality aspects that are of interest for children, as quality is a crucialaspect in the development of any kind of software, especially for stakeholderslike children. Method: Our contribution is based mainly on an analysis ofstudies at the intersection between Software Engineering (especially softwarequality) and Child Computer Interaction. Results: We identify a set ofqualities and a preliminary set of guidelines that can be used by researchersand practitioners in understanding the complex interrelations between SoftwareEngineering and children. Based on the qualities and the guidelines,researchers can design empirical investigations to obtain deeper insights intothe phenomenon and propose new Software Engineering knowledge specific for thistype of stakeholders. Conclusions: This conceptualization is a first steptowards a framework to support children as stakeholders in softwareengineering.
