Scenario Structure

场景结构

Context Setting

场景背景设定

Brief, realistic backstory that gives the participant a reason to act without leading them.
简短、真实的背景故事,为参与者提供行动理由,但不引导他们的行为。

Task

任务

Specific goal to accomplish. Action-oriented, not question-based. Avoids UI terminology that hints at the answer.
具体的完成目标。以行动为导向,而非提问式。避免使用会暗示答案的UI术语。

Success Criteria

成功标准

  • Task completion (yes/no)
  • Time to complete
  • Number of errors or wrong paths
  • Assistance requests
  • Self-reported difficulty (1-5 scale)
  • 任务完成情况(是/否)
  • 完成时间
  • 错误或走弯路的次数
  • 请求帮助的次数
  • 自我报告的难度(1-5分制)

Observation Guide

观察指南

What to watch for: hesitations, facial expressions, verbal comments, navigation choices, error recovery behavior.
需要关注的点:犹豫、面部表情、口头评论、导航选择、错误恢复行为。

Task Types

  • Exploratory: Find information (e.g., 'Find the return policy')
  • Specific: Complete a goal (e.g., 'Add a blue shirt size M to your cart')
  • Comparative: Choose between options
  • Open-ended: Achieve a goal with multiple valid paths

  • 提供动机,而非指令
  • 每个任务一个目标
  • 任务表述中不要透露UI路径
  • 同时包含简单和复杂任务

Best Practices

最佳实践

  • Pilot test your scenarios before real sessions
  • Order tasks from easy to hard
  • Include a warm-up task
  • Prepare follow-up questions per task
  • Write more scenarios than you need (allow flexibility)
  • 在正式测试前先进行试点测试
  • 任务按从易到难的顺序排列
  • 包含一个热身任务
  • 为每个任务准备后续问题
  • 撰写比实际需要更多的场景(保留灵活性)
