For research contexts in which classical test theory provides inadequate measurement of individual differences, use item response theory (including Rasch analysis) instead. measuringu.com/applying-rasc…

A bipolar measure of likelihood to recommend appears to better predict negative word of mouth than the NPS measure of likelihood to recommend, but it cannot be interpreted with current NPS benchmarks. measuringu.com/does-the-nps-…

Unlike our previous research, we found no significant differences in predicted SUS scores from two types of digital twins (summary and full)—but both were very different from human scores. measuringu.com/digital-twins…

Math and empirical data indicate that the first few users in a formative #usability study will uncover most of the common problems that are available for discovery, but how can this help when planning these types of studies? measuringu.com/predicting-n-…

In an experiment with digital twins predicting SUS scores for business software, we found similar standard deviations for humans and AI but very different shapes (skewness and kurtosis). measuringu.com/digital-twins…

Our analyses of three versions of a technical activity checklist indicate that a list of 16 activities is too much, 9 isn’t quite enough, and 10 is just right. measuringu.com/rasch-analysi…

Our study of clothing websites found that they provide experiences that are above average (collectively, at the 82nd percentile in the SUPR-Q). Individually their SUPR-Q percentiles ranged from the 50th percentile (H&M) to the 98th (Banana Republic). measuringu.com/ux-nps-benchm…

Most surveys contain a mix of closed-ended (e.g., rating scales) and open-ended questions. Here are five reasons to use open-ended questions. measuringu.com/open-ended-re…

Some variables cannot be observed directly. Trust is one example; it can only be measured through inference. Such variables are hidden (latent). measuringu.com/understanding…
