Usability Data Analysis and Evaluation

This chapter addresses the final, crowning steps of nearly all CoMeDa cycles, i.e. analysis of the collected usability data and reporting on results. The only exceptions are when we collect micro-behavioural data purely for component training purposes (cf. Sections 10.2 and 10.5) or collect user screening data (Section 8.6), in which cases there may be no real analysis, only data reporting. In all other cases of applying the methods described in this book, we apply the method because we need the results of data analysis.
