Integrating Physiological Sensors into User Evaluations: Two Studies Involving Experts and Novices [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
This paper presents two exploratory studies integrating physiological sensors in user testing for product development. The focus is on the use of eye-tracking glasses, and ECG sensors for heart rate activity. Participants, including professionals and untrained individuals, tested three different electrical connectors for domestic storage water heaters. The studies aimed to enrich knowledge about users and their context of use, validate if the solution integrates into their current usage practices, and reveal underlying cognitive processes that might be difficult for users to articulate. The first study involved a usage analysis with “expert” participants, while the second study compared usage patterns between experts and novices. The findings contribute to the understanding of how physiological sensors can be effectively used in user testing, offering valuable insights for the evaluation and development of new products.
