In this completely updated and revised edition of _Designing with the
Mind in Mind_, Jeff Johnson provides you with just enough background
in perceptual and cognitive psychology that user interface (UI) design
guidelines make intuitive sense rather than being just a list or rules
to follow.
Early UI practitioners were trained in cognitive psychology, and
developed UI design rules based on it. But as the field has evolved
since the first edition of this book, designers enter the field from
many disciplines. Practitioners today have enough experience in UI
design that they have been exposed to design rules, but it is
essential that they understand the psychology behind the rules in
order to effectively apply them.
In this new edition, you'll find new chapters on human choice and
decision making, hand-eye coordination and attention, as well as new
examples, figures, and explanations throughout.
* Provides an essential source for user interface design rules and
how, when, and why to apply them
* Arms designers with the science behind each design rule, allowing
them to make informed decisions in projects, and to explain those
decisions to others
* Equips readers with the knowledge to make educated tradeoffs
between competing rules, project deadlines, and budget pressures
* Completely updated and revised, including additional coverage on
human choice and decision making, hand-eye coordination and attention,
and new mobile and touch-screen examples throughout
