Enhancing the design process with drama-related methods (2016)
Journal Article
Lawson, G., Brown, M., Coughlan, T., Floyde, A., Baurley, S., Elliott, M., …Tsai, A. (in press). Enhancing the design process with drama-related methods. Design Journal, 19(4), https://doi.org/10.1080/14606925.2016.1176341

This paper presents a critical review of several applications of drama-related methods to design, discussing their benefits and limitations and providing comment on practical aspects of their implementation. Drama-related methods can shed light on th... Read More about Enhancing the design process with drama-related methods.

Establishing usability heuristics for heuristics evaluation in a specific domain: is there a consensus? (2016)
Journal Article
Hermawati, S., & Lawson, G. (2016). Establishing usability heuristics for heuristics evaluation in a specific domain: is there a consensus?. Applied Ergonomics, 56, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apergo.2015.11.016

Heuristics evaluation is frequently employed to evaluate usability. While general heuristics are suitable to evaluate most user interfaces, there is still a need to establish heuristics for specific domains to ensure that their specific usability iss...
