This study introduces three methods to assess product user-friendliness during use, focusing on intuitiveness. The research provides experimental procedures for evaluating user-friendliness in product design.
Area of Science:
- Human-Computer Interaction
- Product Design
- Experimental Psychology
Background:
- Assessing product user-friendliness is crucial for effective design.
- Existing methods may not fully capture user experience during actual product use.
- Intuitiveness is a key factor in user-friendliness.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop and present experimental procedures for assessing product user-friendliness.
- To explore different approaches for measuring intuitiveness in product interaction.
- To provide a framework for designing experiments focused on user-friendliness.
Main Methods:
- Development of three distinct experimental approaches.
- Focus on product usage scenarios to evaluate intuitiveness.
- Design of experimental procedures for user-friendliness assessment.
Main Results:
- The study outlines specific procedures for conducting user-friendliness experiments.
- The developed methods offer ways to measure intuitiveness during product use.
- Experimental design steps are detailed for replication and further research.
Conclusions:
- The proposed experimental design steps facilitate the assessment of product user-friendliness.
- The focus on intuitiveness provides a measurable aspect of user experience.
- This research contributes to the methodology of user-centered product design.
