Human-Computer Interface Design Based on Design Psychology

A survey study of color guidelines for user-computer interface design was undertaken and assessed against relevant knowledge about the human perceptual system. The main problem found is that some guidelines are dissociated from knowledge of how the human perceptual system works in relation to the constraints of the computer as a medium for perception. The guidelines approach, whose goal is to produce straightforward, concise recommendations for a diverse audience, may encourage this situation. Some specific problems and gaps in color guidelines are discussed. An alternative approach based on gearing guidance to the difficulties and common problems faced by designers is sketched.

The concept of Behavioral Interoperability is propounded and discussed. Interoperability is recognized as an important design goal with respect to various physical/mechanical components of computerized systems. It would be productive to extend the concept to the behavioral domain. A methodology that has proved useful in deriving guidelines for higher order aspects of human-computer interaction is described. The method is based on a comparative analysis of common or universal transactions associated with existing data processing system. An example of the format and content of a preliminary set of guidelines is provided.
