“…The studies in this category were concerned with teaching the necessary knowledge that individuals need to be able to transport themselves effectively. Some examples of this are found in [32,33]. McKissick et al [32] investigated the impact of a computer instruction package to teach map-reading skills to three elementary students with ASD.…”

“…Very promising results were obtained for interventions that used technology with children with ASD, such as increased levels of learning and improved learning habits among students. De Los Rios [33] proposed a draft of a study to evaluate platforms and interfaces that help users transport themselves, such as Google Maps or Apple Maps with eye tracking. They compared these platforms and interfaces with a proposed system that would provide a more personalized environment that is adapted and accessible to the needs of people with ASD.…”

“…On the other hand, other studies such as [27,33] proposed the evaluation of the usability and/or user experience of the systems in future works. De Los Rios [33] suggested evaluating the usability of the application based on eye tracking. Schmidt and Beck [27] proposed the use of eye-tracking, electroencephalogram (EEG) scanning, and focus group interviews to evaluate the usability of the system.…”

People with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) tend to enjoy themselves and be engaged when interacting with computers, as these interactions occur in a safe and trustworthy environment. In this paper, we present a systematic literature review on the state of the research on the use of technology to teach people with ASD. We reviewed 94 studies that show how the use of technology in educational contexts helps people with ASD develop several skills, how these approaches consider aspects of user experience, usability and accessibility, and how game elements are used to enrich learning environments. This systematic literature review shows that the development and evaluation of systems and applications for users with ASD is very promising. The use of technological advancements such as virtual agents, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and augmented reality undoubtedly provides a comfortable environment that promotes constant learning for people with ASD.

“…After the systematic literature review carried out previously [2] and a review of the literature at present, we found studies that have evaluated the user experience and/or usability in systems designed for people with ASD. Some studies [9][10][11] mention having carried out focus groups, and other studies [9,12,13] propose the use of eye tracking. In ref.…”

User Experience Factors for People with Autism Spectrum Disorder

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a condition characterized by difficulties with social interaction and communication. Studies show that people with ASD tend to enjoy using technology, as it provides them with a safe and trustworthy environment. Evaluating User eXperience (UX) in people with disabilities has been a challenge that studies have addressed in recent times. Several studies have evaluated the usability and UX of systems designed for people with ASD using evaluation methods focused on end users without disabilities. In reviewing studies that evaluate systems designed for people with ASD, considering the characteristics of these users, we discovered a lack of particularized UX models. We present a proposal of nine UX factors for people with ASD based on two approaches: (1) the characteristics, affinities, and needs of people with ASD, and (2) design guidelines and/or recommendations provided in studies on technological systems for people with ASD and/or interventions with these users. The nine UX factors for people with ASD provide a theoretical basis from which to adapt and/or create UX evaluation instruments and methods and to generate recommendations and/or design guidelines that are adequate for this context.
