We live in a fortunate time in User Experience. Never before have so many people become aware of user experience and the importance of understanding users. Yet, how to gain this understanding of users is still shrouded in myths and legends. In this presentation, we explore the territory of user research to better understand the myths and legends that surround it, with the goal of bringing to light the truth about how to use research to understand users.]]>

Communicating user research findings effectively so that people can understand them, believe them, and know how to act on the recommendations can be challenging. You may feel that you’ve delivered a successful presentation, but later you find that the recommendations aren’t acted upon. Ideally, our clients are as interested in our user research findings and recommendations as we are and find them valuable, but without the proper understanding, clients can express a variety of negative reactions. This presentation will discuss best practices in communicating user research findings to avoid these problems and to lead to better outcomes.]]>

How can we observe natural behavior if our mere presence affects what people do? Don’t tell them that you’re observing them. Being covert means observing behaviors in their natural contexts without any intervention or influence by the researcher and without participants knowing that they’re being observed.]]>

From the perspective of a participant, user research is not very natural. We ask participants to try to act naturally in the artificial environment of a lab, or we impose ourselves on their environment and hope our presence doesn't affect their behavior. We often forget how unnatural user research can be and the negative effects it can have on participants. In this presentation, we'll first examine the ways in which user research can be unnatural. Then we'll discuss ways to minimize or eliminate these unnatural aspects of user research.]]>
