CAPTURING THE MOOD: EVALUATION OF THE MOODSTRIPE AND MOODGRAPH INTERFACES

摘要

This study presents an evaluation of two interfaces for gathering user feedback in online surveys. We evaluated the intuitiveness, usability and time complexity of the proposed interfaces in comparison to the more standard approaches. Over 900 users first participated in an online survey exploring the influence of mood on their emotional responses to music and colors. We included several new interfaces in this survey, so after it was completed, users were asked to complete a second survey where they evaluated various aspects of the interfaces. Our analysis shows reduced time complexity and increased intuitiveness of the new interfaces, compared to standard approaches, resulting in lower mental difficulty and frustration of participants.
