In this context, \u003cb\u003eAdvances in Usability Evaluation Part I \u003c\/b\u003ediscusses emerging concepts, theories, and applications of human factors knowledge focusing on the discovery and understanding of human interaction with products and systems for their improvement. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book covers devices and their interfaces, focusing on optimization of user devices and emphasizing visual and haptic feedback. It then discusses user studies, exploring the limits and capabilities of special populations, particularly the elderly, which can influence the design. It also examines the effect of changes in force and kinematics, physiology, cognitive performance, in the design of consumer products, tools and workplaces. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExamining a variety of user-centered evaluation approaches, the concluding chapters details methods for developing products that can improve safety and human performance and at same time, the efficiency of the system. It reports on usability evaluations for different kinds of products and technologies, particularly for cellular phones, earphones, earphone controls, mattresses and pillows, package and professional tools, and service systems. The book provides new methods that enhance performance, expand capabilities, and optimize the fit between people and technology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45239930192023,"sku":"9780367381134","price":5938.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780367381134.webp?v=1769224004","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/advances-in-usability-evaluation-part-i-9780367381134","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
