@lawtonpybus Have you personally tried any of those you cited as a mentor?

[Laure Roy-Duchamp @LaureUXR]

@lawtonpybus Very interesting post! Didn’t know tech apprenticeship groups existed. They sound like an incredible opportunity for juniors but also for professionals who would like to give back as pro bono 😊

@lawtonpybus This is the series I need in my life! Revisiting key foundational articles in HCI with today’s lenses 🤩 thanks, what a great idea! I’ll have a think for other articles

@lawtonpybus Definitely optimistic (maybe my ignorance is bliss?)!
I think the very root of UX stems from interaction, and as long as there are interactions (human to human, human to machine or ai,…) UX isn’t going anywhere

[Laure Roy-Duchamp @LaureUXR]

@lawtonpybus This is packed with great tips! Thank you, I’ll definitely try some out in my current report :)

[Laure Roy-Duchamp @LaureUXR]

@Steve_Bromley Are some methods overlapping like surveys? Or do they have completely different sets of methodologies ?

[Laure Roy-Duchamp @LaureUXR]

I just only saw this but massive thank you to @Steve_Bromley for mentioning @playcocola in your great informative post on remote testing platforms for games https://t.co/JTGP79fYjS it was a great read as always!

[Laure Roy-Duchamp @LaureUXR]

@Steve_Bromley @onegameaweek101 I would have loved to hear that talk!

[Steve Bromley 🦆 @Steve_Bromley]

🎮How many players do you need for a playtest?

Five.

Except when it's not five. Then it depends.

Here’s how to work out the right number of players for your playtest.

[Laure Roy-Duchamp @LaureUXR]

@Steve_Bromley I’ve been asked that exact question in an interview for a big gaming company. My answer was similar to yours but because I didn’t give a definitive answer with a number, they judged me too junior and took my « it depends » nuanced answer for a « i haven’t a clue » answer 😂

[Laure Roy-Duchamp @LaureUXR]

@Steve_Bromley Thank you so much for this interesting thread! It’s very validating when you know that in some companies they go by the book and forget to use their judgement in qualitative research 😃 we don’t have statistical significance to tell us when to stop

Two fundamental brain activity patterns influence UX:

1. Task-positive network (TPN)
→ central executive
→ goal-focused attention
→ high-level thinking

Resist intrusions

2. Task-negative network (TNN)
→ browsing
→ mind-wandering
→ non-linear thinking

Welcome intrusions
