The Adaptation of the Device Assessment Questionnaire ISO 9241-9 in the Polish Samples

The paper demonstrates the Polish version of Device Assessment Questionnaire. Adaptation process was made in order to create the universal tool for the assessment of pointing devices other than keyboard, as it is intended in ISO9241-9 standard. The authors’ main purpose was to include in the adaptation process some of the problems of psychological rather than the content or language nature. These problems are associated with the uncertainty of those respondents, especially people with disabilities, in the subject of evaluation and excessive internal attribution (assessment of their own competencies and not the characteristics of the device).The results of three studies with an adapted diagnostic tool for comfort of work are presented. Obtained study results show compliance with the Standard, versatility and flexibility of the Questionnaire.
