Election Ballot Usability
with Caroline Jarret and Clare Barnett
20thOct '09
About the event
Remember the 2007 Scottish Parliament elections, when the ballot paper came in for a lot of criticism for poor usability?
Spurred by this, and concern about other elections, the Electoral Commission commissioned User Vision and Effortmark to conduct usability tests with a range of voters in Scotland, England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Find out about how we approached the project and what we learned about ballots:
- What makes voting hard or easy
- How details of design affect the task success of voting
About what we learned about running a paper testing project across four countries:
- Offline and online testing, differences and similarities
- How we analysed the results
