What are your hypotheses?

Hello,
Here is what I think links look like links:
- A button always look like link
- Underline blue letters look like link (ex : www.amazon.com)
- Blue letter only could also look like link (ex : www.ebay.com)
- Underlined letter only could too look like link (ex: http://www.poynter.org)

Effectively you are all right. I will try to convince the marketing
department to do thinking aloud on questions (about 5-7 user I think) to
validate the question.

It doesn't sound that weird because UPA website is getting old. Now
usability standards are a lot higher than few years ago.
Look at Nielsen website (www.useit.com), it is also getting old, colors and

Welcome to the Interaction Design Association (
Hello,
If I want to do a survey to participant about, for example, usability of a
product. Is it better to formulate questions in a positive way ? "Is this
product is easy to use ?" or rather in a negative way "Did you experience
difficulties using this product ?"
Or maybe I should ask them both,
Hello,
I would like to show in a very simple way how user research and usability
can be usefull for business. So I am looking for any kind of recent Graph,
chart or statistique about the value of User Research. The only convenient
graph I have found for now is from the Nielsen Usability Report :

It is effectively all the participants in one room at the same time. It
allow both user testing and focus group... to minimize the cost, the time
necessary to analyze the data and maximize the amount of information. Even
if it is a little biaised.

Hello Marijke,
I have recently seen a Microsoft methodology for user testing, it is called
RITE : Rapid Iterative Testing and Evaluation.
It is like an usual test with scenarios, but they test only one user at a
time. They test one user and immediatly from the finding they adapt the
design. And th

Thank you for this answer. I have the feeling that scenarios are the key for
a successful usability test, and I really would like to have all the tools
to succeed my usabilities tests.
I still have a lot of questions about the right way to do my scenarios and
to analyze them.

Hello,
I don't have a lot of experiences about user testing, but shouldn't it be
better if the finding are somewhat qualitative ?
I mean, if a finding councern only one user and never happen to any other
users. Would that still be usefull to take it into account ?

Hi,
I have seen this seminar :
http://www.uie.com/events/uiconf/2007/sessions/molich/
which is talking about advanced methods in usability testing. They make a
differentiation between Task and Scenario. I do not have a particular
strategy to make scenarios, and scenarios and tasks are the same f
