Abstract

Web accessibility is an important aspect of creating an inclusive event or meeting. This study examined a total of 278 websites’ accessibility of various event sectors using AChecker. The findings explain the identified known problems of the websites by different event sectors (professional event management association events, convention centers, and tradeshows) based on Web Content Accessibility Guideline (WCAG) 2.0. In addition, the results contribute to the methodology of web-accessibility research suggesting that the exploratory factor analysis could offer web designers a practical improvement plan based on the unique interrelationships among the detected items of each criterion.

摘要

Web 可访问性是创建包容性活动或会议的一个重要方面。本研究使用 AChecker 检查了总共 278 个网站对各种活动部门的可访问性。调查结果解释了基于 Web 内容可访问性指南 (WCAG) 2.0 的不同活动部门（专业活动管理协会活动、会议中心和贸易展览）确定的网站已知问题。此外，结果有助于网络可访问性研究的方法，表明探索性因素分析可以基于每个标准检测项目之间的独特相互关系为网页设计师提供实用的改进计划。
