Research Topic 192 / 200

User testing captures only broad satisfaction ratings

Comments such as “easy to use” or “difficult to use” are hard to translate into actionable changes.

Research Focus: Prototype Validation and Design ManagementProblem identification → Design validation → Implementation

Three-step solution method

  1. Break research objectives down into specific tasks and observable measures.
  2. Record actions, errors, pauses and users’ explanations.
  3. Propose changes based on evidence of specific issues, then retest using the same tasks.

Key Deliverables

  • Task Script
  • Observation Notes
  • Design Revision Log

Verification Approach

Compare task performance before and after revisions, and check whether issues recur.
