Description/Abstract:
We will cover a range of research techniques that have been put into practice to successfully include individuals with cognitive differences in user research, such as the Scaffolding Method and Pen Portraits. Additionally, we will do a deep dive into an approach to looking at brain wavelengths while interacting with interfaces as a method to research cognitive and mental health accessibility of software applications.
