What is the importance of A/B testing in HCI?

• It helps in determining the best design

• It is not important

• It is only for user satisfaction

• It can be ignored

How does HCI contribute to user experience?

• By focusing on the technical aspects of programming

• By improving the physical design of devices

• By understanding and designing according to the psychology of the user
