Commentary: Usability in Theory and Practice

This commentary discusses Noam Tractinsky’s article “The Usability Construct: A Dead End?” (Human–Computer Interaction, 2017). That article debates the conceptual qualities of “usability” as a key concept in human–computer interaction. It provides two main conclusions: (a) the usefulness of the concept of “usability” to human–computer interaction theories has been limited and (b) a notion of “construct” is useful for identifying weaknesses of the concept of “usability” and thereby provides reasons for its limited usefulness. The article is interesting and provides an in-depth analysis of the concept of usability. Unfortunately, the use of this analysis is not convincing. Instead, redefinition of “usability” should be based on a constructive approach.

评论:理论和实践中的可用性

该评论讨论了Noam Tractinsky的文章“可用性构建:终结?” (人机交互,2017年)。那篇文章讨论了“可用性”的概念品质,这是人机交互中的关键概念。它提供了两个主要结论:(a)“可用性”概念对人机交互理论的有用性受到限制;(b)“构造”概念可用于识别“可用性”概念的弱点;以及从而提供了其用途有限的原因。这篇文章很有趣,并提供了可用性概念的深入分析。不幸的是,使用这种分析并不令人信服。相反,“可用性”的重新定义应基于建设性的方法。
