“…Heimgartner (2005) introduced a tool that automatically classifies users based on their navigation patterns while performing predefined tasks. His work focuses on paving the way for culturally adaptive navigation systems (Heimgartner et al, 2007) including different adaptations as needed for culturally adaptive web pages. This is done against the background that an adaptive or well-navigated system can improve user performance or make it easier for users to achieve their goals (Perceived Usability) (Findlater & McGrenere, 2008;Findlater et al, 2009;Gajos et al, 2008;Greenberg & Witten, 1985;Hook, 1997;Sears & Shneiderman, 1994).…”

E-Learning has been massively used in higher education, one of which is in Universitas Indonesia. The e-learning system in Universitas Indonesia is called Student Centered E-Learning Environment Universitas Indonesia (SCELE UI). This research determines the effect of usability on the intention to use SCELE UI in a sustainable way. The Expectation Confirmation Model (ECM) is used as a basis of the research model. Perceived Usability, Learnability, Presentation, Navigation and Error variables are added to the model. The Partial Least Square is used to analyze and test the model. Of the 12 proposed hypotheses, 10 hypotheses were accepted and 2 hypotheses were rejected. This research gives theoretical and practical contributions. On the theoretical side, this research successfully proposes and examines the integration of usability and ECM in the context of sustain e-learning usage intention. This research reveals the indirect effect of Perceived Usability on continued usage intention of the e-learning system. On the practical side, this research also provides insights for developers and universities that can help them to effectively foster the improvement of their system that can ensure sustained usage by their students.

When we investigate the usability and aesthetics of user interfaces, we rarely take into account that what users perceive as beautiful and usable strongly depends on their cultural background. In this paper, we argue that it is not feasible to design one interface that appeals to all users of an increasingly global audience. Instead, we propose to design culturally adaptive systems, which automatically generate personalized interfaces that correspond to cultural preferences. In an evaluation of one such system, we demonstrate that a majority of international participants preferred their personalized versions over a non-adapted interface of the same web site. Results show that users were 22% faster using the culturally adapted interface, needed less clicks, and made fewer errors, in line with subjective results demonstrating that they found the adapted version significantly easier to use. Our findings show that interfaces that adapt to cultural preferences can immensely increase the user experience.

“…They also differ in terms of emotional engagement, driving skills, and traffic perception [8], which is of course also contingent on the different traffic rules in place, such as the right of way, speed limits, or the severity of penalties [29,50]. Chinese drivers also show different driving preferences, styles and behaviors from the German, e.g., a faster flow with greater density of information [18] and a lower level of driving anger [30].…”

In this paper we present use cases for affective user interfaces (UIs) in cars and how they are perceived by potential users in China and Germany. Emotion-aware interaction is enabled by the improvement of ubiquitous sensing methods and provides potential benefits for both traffic safety and personal well-being. To promote the adoption of affective interaction at an international scale, we developed 20 mobile in-car use cases through an inter-cultural design approach and evaluated them with 65 drivers in Germany and China. Our data shows perceived benefits in specific areas of pragmatic quality as well as cultural differences, especially for socially interactive use cases. We also discuss general implications for future affective automotive UI. Our results provide a perspective on cultural peculiarities and a concrete starting point for practitioners and researchers working on emotion-aware interfaces.
