HCC 8410 - Advanced Measurement and Evaluation of Human-Centered Computing Systems

3 Credits (3 Contact Hours)
Students learn how to scientifically evaluate computing systems using a quantitative, user-centric approach, and to statistically evaluate data obtained from a user experiment, a survey, or system usage log files. Special attention is given to two very important state-of-the-art methods for HCC research: The measurement and evaluation of subjective valuations of users’ usage experience using multi-item psychometric instruments and exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis (EFA and CFA), and the evaluation of structured models of hypotheses using structural equation modeling (SEM). Advanced methods such as Rasch modeling and factor mixture analysis are also covered. Preq: HCC 6400.
