Task Analysis

Human Factors Minute ·

2023/10/20

...and now for another Human Factors Minute! Task analysis is the process of learning about ordinary users by observing them in action to understand in detail how they perform their tasks and achieve their intended goals. With roots in activity theory, task analysis is a way of systematically describing human interaction with a system or process to understand how to match the demands of the system or process to human capabilities. The complexity of this process is generally proportional to

...and now for another Human Factors Minute! Subjects-in-tandem, also known as "Co-Discovery" is a methodology employed where two subjects are asked to work concurrently on a series of tasks while vocalizing their analytical observations. Using this technique, participants can feed off of each other's comments to generate a richer set of observations than is normally possible with the participants interacting separately. Another benefit to this methodology is that having two people work together
