Conducting a usability test with pediatric and adolescent participants takes planning and mindful execution. Our human factors engineering (HFE) experts discuss how to define and recruit these user groups, including the use of dyad sessions (i.e., a participant with their parent or caregiver). 

Our presenters also share special considerations for methodology design, including drafting effective evaluation activities and interview questions. Lastly, we will provide practical tips related to moderating these sessions.

During this webinar, you will learn how to:

  • Define and recruit pediatric and adolescent user groups
  • Craft evaluation activities and interview questions suited for younger participants
  • Prepare for expected challenges when working with pediatrics and adolescents
  • Make younger participants (and their parents!) feel comfortable
  • Lead affirming, kid-friendly interviews
