“…Then, model design, observational, and card sorting followed with a total of four occurrences each. Model design refers to the creation of a model that can be used to collect data from participants (Dong, 2023;Shera et al, 2021;Xie et al, 2017). Observation, on the other hand, is a method of data collection that involves observing behaviour, events, or physical characteristics in their natural environment (Kiv & Shyshkina, 2020;Nourani et al, 2022;Sharifuddin, Nasrudin, & Ahmad Junid, 2020).…”

“…This highlights how important it is to evaluate the impact that AI assistants have on human users in order to ensure that they successfully support and augment the cognitive processes of human users rather than overpowering or frustrating them. Another intriguing aspect found in one article is the interface accessibility issues that blind and visually impaired (BVI) mobile application users face (Shera et al, 2021). It represents the difficulties in designing interfaces that accommodate the requirements of all users.…”

In Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), a user’s mental model affects application sustainability. This study's goal is to find and assess previous work in the area of user mental models and how it relates to the sustainability of application. Thus, a systematic review process was used to identify 641 initial articles, which were then screened based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. According to the review, it has been observed that the mental model of a user has an impact on the creation of applications not only within the domain of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), but also in other domains such as Enterprise Innovation Ecology, Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI), Information Systems (IS), and various others. The examined articles discussed company managers' difficulties in prioritising innovation and ecology, and the necessity to understand users' mental models to build and evaluate intelligent systems. The reviewed articles mostly used experimental, questionnaire, observation, and interviews, by applying either qualitative, quantitative, or mixed-method methodologies. This study highlights the importance of user mental models in application sustainability, where developers may create apps that suit user demands, fit with cognitive psychology principles, and improve human-AI collaboration by understanding user mental models. This study also emphasises the importance of user mental models in the long-term viability and sustainability of applications, and provides significant insights for application developers and researchers in building more user-centric and sustainable applications.

This scoping review aimed to improve the understanding of important factors in digital accessibility for people with visual impairment and blindness, focusing on the first-hand experiences and challenges faced by this target group while using digital technologies. Keywords related to ‘digital technologies,’ ‘accessibility,’ ‘visual impairment,’ and ‘blindness’ were used in searching two databases (n = 683), with additional articles identified by means of manual searches (n = 60). Two reviewers independently screened the titles and abstracts to select 97 articles for full-text screening, of which 49 articles met the inclusion criteria and were selected for review based on the WCAG guidelines, highlighting details for consideration and improvement of the guidelines. The analysis revealed that users suffered from inaccessibility in several ways. For example, many applications or websites are developed for sighted users, where information is communicated through visual content without providing alternatives for assistive technology users. In addition, the lack of keyboard accessibility, shortcuts, or compatibility with different assistive technologies remains a consistent challenge. Furthermore, it was highlighted that simple accessibility measures are not followed adequately or consistently, such as providing alternative text for images or labels for links and buttons. This review highlighted the challenges and consequences of the inaccessibility of digital technologies, providing a detailed explanation regarding the elements that should be considered in the development of digital technologies. It is recommended that people with disabilities should be involved in the design of technology and its accessibility assessment.
