Question#1

How can the approach for conducting user surveys be summarized best?

A. Write survey plan. write schedule, select questionnaire, recruit users, analyze, communicate
B. Write survey plan. interview users and stakeholders, select questionnaire, deploy questionnaire, analyze, communicate
C. Write survey plan. write schedule, select questionnaire, recruit users, remind users, communicate
D. Write survey plan. interview users and stakeholders, select questionnaire, recruit users, remind users, communicate

Explanation:
This sequence captures the essential phases: you start by planning the survey, gather requirements through interviews, choose or design the questionnaire, field (deploy) it to participants, then analyze the collected data and share the findings.

Question#2

1.Which of the following statements about usability test scripts is wrong?

A. It contains pre-session interview questions.
B. It is a checklist used by the moderator of a usability test.
C. It contains post-session interview questions.
D. It contains answers to the test questions.

Explanation:
A usability test script outlines what the moderator should say and do before, during, and after the session including pre- and post-session interview questions and serves as a task checklist. It does not include the correct answers to the usability tasks, since the goal is to observe authentic user behavior rather than verify against predetermined responses.

Question#3

Which of the following are common mistakes made in usability testing?
i. The user is too active
ii. Critical results are ignored
iii. No observers involved
iv. Scheduling too late
v. Incorrect focus

A. ii, iv & v are true, i & iii are false
B. ii & iv are true, i, iii & v are false
C. i, ii & iii are true, iv & v are false
D. i & iii are true, ii, iv & v are false

Explanation:
Common pitfalls include overlooking critical findings (ii), scheduling tests too late in the development cycle (iv), and having the wrong evaluative focus (v). Neither “the user is too active” (i) nor “no observers involved” (iii) are typical mistakes in standard usability-testing practice.

Question#4

Which of these basic approaches to a software development project follows all key elements of human-centered evaluation?

A. Interview users, develop the software, and perform acceptance test
B. Define requirements, develop the software, and perform acceptance test
C. Iteratively develop prototypes, perform expert reviews, and integrate found issues
D. Interview users, iteratively develop prototypes, and evaluate the software

Explanation:
This approach embodies the full human-centered design cycle: you start by understanding users’ needs, then create and refine prototypes in iterative loops, and continuously evaluate (with users) to ensure the solution meets those needs.

Question#5

What is the System Usability Scale (SUS)?

A. Testing to evaluate the degree to which the system can be used by specified users with effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction in a specified context of use.
B. A usability test execution activity specified by the moderator that needs to be accomplished by a usability test participant within a given period of time.
C. A simple, ten-item attitude scale giving a global view of subjective assessments of usability.
D. A requirement on the usability of a component of system

Explanation:
The SUS is a standardized questionnaire with ten statements rated by users, yielding a single score that reflects overall perceived usability - widely used for quick benchmarking across systems.
