Faulty by Design: An Examination of User Decision MakingUXPA Boston
The document discusses how human decision making is inherently flawed and biased. It explores various cognitive biases and heuristics that negatively impact decisions. These include efficiency biases that prioritize ease over accuracy, near-term biases that discount long-term outcomes, and anxiety biases that avoid negative information. The document argues user experience design should account for these real human tendencies rather than assume rational decision making. Design could help counteract biases through simplification, comparison tools, and framing choices to reduce overreliance on intuition.
The document discusses how UX practitioners and marketing researchers need to work more closely together. While they have different focuses and methodologies, combining their expertise could help organizations better understand users and customers. Emerging technologies also provide new opportunities for gathering insights. By sharing information and collaborating, UX and marketing teams can create more effective digital experiences that are both usable and persuasive.

Changing a Life: Impactful Designs for Sick ChildrenUXPA Boston
Wayne Hosley presented on redesigning respiratory masks for sick children. Currently, masks can cause health issues like pressure ulcers in 27% of infant patients. The project focuses on redesigning the headgear attachment to improve comfort and prevent ulcers. Data was collected through literature reviews, expert interviews, and usability testing. Clinicians wanted masks that are replaceable, easily attach/detach, and unobtrusive. Two initial concepts were presented, with the final concept improving on headgear and attachment. Phase 2 will further develop the redesign.

The document discusses filmmaking and community media from the perspective of a 2nd year PhD student at UWS who is a filmmaker, documentarist, and works with community, participatory, collaborative, and practice-based media, with a focus on islands and urban areas. The student explores how knowledge emerges through the process and practice of filmmaking rather than existing prior to it, as discussed in a quote from MacDougall's 1998 work.
Predictive Analytics with UX Research Data: Yes We Can!UXPA Boston
This document discusses how predictive analytics techniques can be applied to user experience research data. It will provide examples using data from usability tests and surveys to demonstrate confidence intervals, correlation, simple linear regression, and stepwise regression. These predictive analytics methods can be applied not just to usability and survey data but also to data from other UX research methods like interviews and physiological testing. The presentation will focus on how confidence intervals are particularly important for understanding UX research findings given the small sample sizes typical of most usability studies.

Search is the New Black: How Millenials Find Information OnlineUXPA Boston
The document discusses how Millennials search for information online. It finds that they almost always start searches on Google and rely heavily on search boxes. Millennials use simple keyword searches and put complete trust in search result rankings, only looking at the first page of results. They have poor search tactics like overusing natural language and changing topics frequently. The document recommends designing interfaces with recognizable search boxes on every page and focusing on improving students' search skills.

Deeply Embedding UX Practices Into Your Organization by Grafting them Into Your Agile Process
Mark Ferencik's presentation from the UXPA Boston 2016 Conference
This document discusses how research design can influence findings in unintended ways. It notes that preferences, judgments and decisions are sensitive to context. Factors like question framing, ordering, word choice, assumptions, and comparisons can impact participant responses. The presentation advocates being aware of these influences and controlling elements of the design, such as how questions are asked, the order of questions, word selection, and use of scales, charts and comparisons, to minimize unintended impacts on research findings. In summary, the design itself can affect outcomes, so researchers should seek to understand and account for these influences.

Designing for Education: an iPad Case StudyUXPA Boston
Tablet technology is widely touted as the next wave in education. Last year, many school districts shelled out hundreds of thousands of dollars for the new technology. With hundreds of educational-focused applications available in the iTunes or Google Play stores, one may assume that these applications are superior to the traditional methods. Educators cite the engaging and motivational benefits of the iPad and other technologies in student learning. With this question in mind, a team of researchers at Bentley University compared the engagement benefits from traditional paper-based books and a tablet interactive text application “Inkling.” Participants explored this new interactive textbook – Inkling – and the same content in a traditional paper textbook. The case study explored the pros and cons in moving beyond traditional education methods. For our research, we worked with higher education students who owned and used an iPad regularly. We gauged their emotional engagement in the education activities – or ‘homework’ assignments – throughout the sessions. We obtained their emotional engagement data by combining SMI’s eye-tracking technology with Affectiva’s Q-Sensor galvanic system measurement gloves and Microsoft Product Reaction cards. Using this technology, we were able to pinpoint the moments in which students had an emotion response (engagement) with the tasks. At the end of each session, we discussed the qualitative aspects of the interactions, including participants’ expectations and experiences using the iPad and traditional paper textbook to complete the tasks. Our hypothesis was that the iPad interactive reading technology would be more engaging to students and consequently be a better tool to aid their education. In our presentation at the UPA Boston Conference, we will present the sometimes contradictory findings from our case study. We will make recommendations based on these findings for designers – for both traditional textbooks and digital textbooks to keep in mind. We will also explore several open questions our field must tackle as we continue to migrate educational materials to digital forms.
Usability Testing on Mobile Devices - No More Excuses!UXPA Boston
This document describes two setup options for conducting usability testing on mobile devices remotely. Setup 1 involves using two laptops, one to capture and share the screen of the mobile device being tested and the other to record the session. This allows observers to view both the screen and participant's face. Setup 2 only requires one device but is limited to iPhones. The document provides details on equipment, software, and steps needed for Setup 1 to help overcome barriers to remote mobile testing.
Jen McGinn gives a presentation on persona development. She discusses definitions of personas, advice for development, and case studies. Personas are hypothetical archetypes that represent important user groups defined by their goals. McGinn recommends conducting original research using multiple methods like surveys and interviews to develop valid personas aligned with business goals. Personas should be used throughout the design process to drive user-centered design.
