What makes you click? Persuasive interface design

Do you know why people:

  • buy a product on your website?
  • decide to sign up for a newsletter?
  • donate online?
  • trust (or reject) the information at your site?

Is decision making rational, or are there non-conscious processes and emotions that initiate behavior? Susan and Mona explore and demonstrate research on the brain and neuroscience, showing how you can apply these insights to design a more persuasive website. You will learn:

  • the non-conscious roots of decision making
  • how emotions affect decisions to take action
  • how to apply principles of persuasion, emotion and trust to design successful websites

A tale of two generations:
designing for Baby Boomers vs. the Net Generation

We all know about the Baby Boomers... they are a huge demographic, there are a lot of them, and they are now aging... but did you realize that there is a new generation that outnumbers the boomers?

Called the "Net Generation," these are people born between 1977 and 1996. There are 80 million in the US and over 2 billion worldwide. They may be a critical part of your current and upcoming target audience for the products you sell and/or the interfaces you design.

These generations are very different. HFI has been conducting exploratory research on generational differences. In this session, Susan will share findings, ideas and examples that describe:

  • similarities and differences between the two groups
  • the impact on user experience
  • how expectations, experience, and use of technology differences between generations will/should change the interfaces you design
