> Personas are a classic example of a method that is "valid" in Martin's terms.
That's an interesting article, but I must admit it has me confused as to whether personas would be an attempt at validity or reliability. I see personas as an attempt to represent a product's users, the goal being to reliably categorize users into types so that the product can be designed to fit those types. I see that as putting the method on the reliability side, although I'm uncertain as to whether it actually is reliable. Or looked at from another angle, can personas be considered valid if they don't represent actual users? Thank you for the link. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
