Bottlenecks, 1st ed. Aligning UX Design with User Psychology

Langue : Anglais

Auteur :

Couverture de l’ouvrage Bottlenecks

Learn the psychological constrictions of attention, perception, memory, disposition, motivation, and social influence that determine whether customers will be receptive to your digital innovations.

Bottlenecks: Aligning UX Design with User Psychology fills a need for entrepreneurs, designers, and marketing professionals in the application of foundational psychology to user-experience design. The first generation of books on the topic focused on web pages and cognitive psychology. This book covers apps, social media, in-car infotainment, and multiplayer video games, and it explores the crucial roles played by behaviorism, development, personality, and social psychology. Author David Evans is an experimental psychology Ph.D. and senior manager of consumer research at Microsoft who recounts high-stakes case studies in which behavioral theory aligned digital designs with the bottlenecks in human nature to the benefit of users and businesses alike.

Praise

?Bottlenecks? is a tight and eminently actionable read for business leaders in startups and enterprises alike. Evans gives us a rich sense of key psychological processes and even richer examples of them in action.? - Nir Eyal, Author of Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products

Bottlenecks offers practical explanations and evidence based on the idea that human cognition did not begin with the digital age.? - John Dirks, UX Director and Partner, Blink UX
