HUMAN FACTORS

An approach to the study of

human thought and behavior

This element encompasses the characteristics, capabilities, and limitations of individuals who interact with systems, products or environments.

Also known as human factors engineering, is a field that focuses on designing and arranging products, systems, and environments to optimize human well-being, comfort, safety, and performance.

a multidisciplinary field that studies the mind and its processes, including perception, memory, decision-making, problem-solving, language, and more. It seeks to understand how humans think, learn, and process information

It aims to create interfaces and interactions that are aligned with human abilities and limitations.

Observing real users as they perform tasks on the interface, providing insights into their behavior, preferences, and challenges.

• Usability testing

• Comparative studies

• Prototyping

• User surveys

Analyzing user tasks helps predict how users will interact with a system to accomplish specific goals, identifying potential challenges or bottlenecks.

• Usability testing

• Comparative studies

• Task analysis

• User surveys

Creating interactive prototypes allows designers to predict user interactions by observing how users navigate and use the interface during testing.

• Usability testing

• Comparative studies

• Prototyping

• User surveys

These models simulate user behavior based on cognitive principles, predicting how users will perceive and respond to different interface elements.

• Prototyping

• Cognitive Models

Gathering user feedback through surveys helps assess their experiences, preferences, and satisfaction levels.
