User Experience Evaluation of Augmented Reality

The UXARcis Questionnaire

An innovative UX questionnaire for measuring User Experience of Augmented Reality in Corporate Training.

UX Evaluation of AR

UXARcis Questionnaire


Measuring UX on two abstraction levels

Our questionnaire provides a comprehensive assessment of relevant UX dimensions based on eight validated scales. It enables researchers and practitioners to gain deep insights into how users perceive concrete AR system characteristics and UX quality aspects based on 34 items that can be answered on 7-point Likert scales. Filling out the questionnaire required between 8 and 10 minutes. All materials of the UXARcis are provided free of charges.

Contextuality

Integrated presentation of virtual and physical elements.

Spatiality

Assignment of unique spatial properties to virtual elements by positioning them within the physical environment.

Interactivity

Modification and manipulation of virtual components by interacting with physical objects.

Perspicuity

The user easily gets familiar with the product and to learn how to use it.

Efficiency

The user can solve their tasks without unnecessary effort. The product reacts fast.

Dependability

The user feels in control of the interaction. The product reacts predictably and consistently to user commands.

Usefulness

Using the product brings advantages to the user. Using the product saves time and effort.

Clarity

The user interface of the product looks ordered, tidy, and clear.

From Scores to Design Actions

The UXARcis scales are conntected with relevant AR design recommendations in relation to relevance and importance. The proposed relationship was empirically validated. Based on this, quantified UX results are directly conntected with design actions.

Try it

Try the UXARcis from the perspective of a survey participant. The following UXARcis surveys relate to the evaluation of an AR supported learning scenario. Learners can explore a motor based on a Lego model and an AR application. Please note that some of the questions of the UXARcis should be adapted to the concrete scenario (for example, by clearly naming the virtual or real components), thus some questions will differ between studies.
