Scenario-based persona
Alícia Valls Saez, Muriel Garreta Domingo · 2011
The present work introduces a new way of conveying the results of a user analysis study. Personas are a well established user-centered design methodology; however they are not always well-understood or used by non-experts. By explaining our personas based on their main contexts we wanted to 1) reduce the bias that a face can generate by representing silhouettes instead; 2) combine the concepts of personas and scenarios; 3) foster understanding of our users by showing their main contexts (which are becoming more important with the increase of mobile devices); and 4) create a playful and more permanent artefact to hold all this information.
