This paper describes an experimental study that compares a graphical user interface for a computer-telephony product designed without the involvement of a human factors engineer to a redesign of that interface designed with a human factors engineer late in the development cycle. Both interfaces were usability tested with target customers. Results from a number of measures, both subjective and objective, indicate that the interface designed with the human factors engineer was easier to use than the interface designed without the human factors engineer. The results of this study show the benefits of involving human factors engineers in the design of graphical user interfaces even towards the end of a development cycle. However, this involvement is most effective when human factors engineers are included as an integral part of the design and development process even at this late stage in the process.

This is a synthesis of the responses of Drs. Paul and Schulman and Ms. Blatterbauer, as well as my own. We are in agreement with Dr. Sissman that physicians should be able to deal with the psychosocial aspects of illness, and we know of many who do so. However, we are also aware that this becomes difficult in a large specialty clinic where time is short and many patients must be seen. This experimental study was done because the cardiologists believed that even under the best of circumstances, a small percentage of parents have the opportunity to assimilate the medical information and to think about its implications.
