In sum, the behaviours that enhance UX are:
1. High performance
2. Advocating for users
3. Anticipating behaviours
4. Thinking differently

Pat Jordan is a user researcher who has worked with the UK government and many of the world’s leading companies. He's giving our final talk today about why behaviour is actually our biggest UX problem 🧵

[UX Brighton @UXbri]

We can create better user experiences by:
1. Reframing (e.g. something negative as something positive)
2. Creating good drama (e.g. give a customer a great story)
3. Affirming behaviours (e.g. positive affirmations) 🧵

By prioritising integrity, we can ensure our outcomes (in addition to our process) are good.

Kathy Neuss is Head of Research at Mercator Digital. She's here to teach us how to avoid "small misses": those little mistakes (missed participants, unheard views, hidden missing work, etc.) that so often cause our projects to fail 🧵

We can use this acrostic to bridge the integrity gap and address compounding compromises: 🧵

Leon's final advice: treat research as a team sport. Research has become an increasingly solo activity since the pandemic, but we have the power to challenge that.

Leon Hubert is a Principal Consultant in research and design at Hippo. He's posing a provocative question: what happens if AI makes our research faster and more prolific, but we learn less in the process? 🧵

[UX Brighton @UXbri]

But we can also use agent skills to pressure test our own research or AI's analysis of it. Leon's favourites: checking validity, finding missing voices and challenging interpretation 🧵
