Compare 3 different levels of interactive protocols
Aesthetics & Usability
Interaction & Engagement (Flow & Presence)
Individual Aesthetic Disposition
Develop Research Methodology
Survey Instrument
Observation – Critical Incidents
Interval Mood Scales (iScale*)

Evaluating User Experience and User Engagement for Design
- 1. Evaluating User Experience And User Engagement for Design Jennefer Hart PhD Year One Supervisors: Professor Alistair Sutcliffe & Dr Antonella De Angeli Manchester Business School July 2011
- 2. Research Contribution Extend (and Verify) User Experience Theories Explore the Nature of Interactivity Develop and Test New Research Methodologies Inform Design Practice Improve Product Design
- 3. Research Aims & Objectives ➤ To Investigate Key Constructs Extend the Cognitive Models (e.g., Interaction, Immersion, Flow, within Presence, Aesthetics, Emotion & User Experience Individual Dispositions). Develop Research ➤ To Capture User Experiences (as Methodologies they occur). Explore Prolonged Patterns of ➤ To Capture UX Patterns (over a Interaction prolonged time frame) Inform ➤ To Inform Design Guidelines (by Design determining what interactive Guidelines features elicit positive UX)
- 4. Research Questions RQ1: What are the key constructs that contribute to user engagement and user experience? RQ2: What design protocols or features lead to positive user experiences? RQ3: What are the patterns of interaction over prolonged use?
