Update Study Concept and Design (2020-12-16)

Tagged as: blog,update,HCI,SAM
Group: D_20/21 Further updates on Study design and methodology - including updated schedule

In regards to the research questions presented in the entry before, nothing changed. The planned methods, after further research as suggested, are the implementation of two kinds of online forms for the participant to fill out.

  • one having good usability metrics, providing an easy way of interacting with the form
  • another displaying problems with input and hassling the user in a way

Alongside interacting with these forms, the participant should fill out the SAM questionnaire after each task - but also answer qualitative questions that should measure whether they were able to express themselves with the SAM.

Other questionnaires of interest include: Form Usability Questionnaire (FUS), After Scenario Questionnaire (ASQ), NASA TLX, Subjective Mental Effort Questionnaire (SMEQ), PrEmo (emotion measuring tool for products)

Updated schedule:

  • this year: choosing questionnaires and assessing how long they take to complete - make adjustments if needed; research and draft online forms to use
  • until 07.01: Study design and prototype development if needed
  • January Study
  • Evaluating and writing the paper
