Abstract
Denne rapport undersøger, om en grundig gennemgang af de enkelte dele af brugeroplevelsen (UX) kan give praktisk værdi. Den fokuserer på dimensionen "følelser" i human-computer-interaktion (HCI), som er feltet, der studerer, hvordan mennesker bruger og oplever digitale systemer. Studiet tydeliggør, hvordan følelser bør forstås i denne sammenhæng ved at identificere relevante faktorer og relationerne mellem dem. Denne viden omsættes derefter til praksis gennem udviklingen af en metode til brugbarhedsevaluering (Usability Evaluation Method) - en struktureret måde at vurdere, hvor let og tilfredsstillende et system er at bruge. Metoden blev afprøvet i et eksperiment og viste lovende resultater.
This report investigates whether taking a closer look at individual parts of User Experience (UX) can provide practical value. It focuses on the "Emotion" dimension within Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), the field that studies how people use and experience digital systems. The study clarifies how emotion should be understood in this context by identifying relevant factors and how they relate to one another. This understanding is then used to design a Usability Evaluation Method—a structured way to assess how easy and satisfying a system is to use. The method was tested in an experiment, and the early results were promising.
