Our mail server was having some problems. I think your main concern is finding differences between conditions with some questions. If you are comparing designs, then you can use a different system name for each. Similarly, if you are comparing groups of users, you could do the same, and you could do both in the same name. For example, for design X used by computer scientists, the name could be Control-X-CS. That will distinguish the data that will be delivered in the mail. For experiental design, user-type would be a between-subjects factor, and design could be either between or within. If within subjects, then the same user would try multiuple designs (in a counter-balanced order, which would then become a factor that could be analysed, e.g., do users prefer the first design they use?). If between subjects, then there would be no order factor. If there is a design factor in a within subejcts design (also called repeated measures), then you would have a questions X design X user-type X order design. Some questions would not show any differences, so they might be dropped from the analysis, or means of groups of related questions could be used instead of ratings on individual questions. For analysis, I typically use |STAT (http://hcibib.org/perlman/stat/), and anova or rankind/rankrel would be applicable to your data. Although the questionnaire data are certainly on an ordinal scale, suggesting non-parametric statistics, for designs with about 10 data per cell and equal Ns across conditions, anova is quite robust against violations of its distribution assumptions. Looking over the quesiotnnaires on my page: QUIS - too many questions, many probably not relevant PUEU - okay, but quesitons in a group seem very similar NAU - good NHE - not sure if most of the questions are relevant CSUQ - good ASQ - would require short questionnaires after each condition PHUE - I recommend you only use published questionnaires, so avoid this PUTQ - 100 questions! but you might select a relevant subset, spanning the different categories USE - a possible choice I think you will want to use at least 10 questions that measure different factors, and I think you would want at least 5, but maybe 10 per condition. For example, with one design and two groups of users, I think you'd want 20 users (10 CS and 10 NCS). More is better, but you should not need more than 20 users per greoup to distinguish two groups of users. I suggest you gather information about your users for post-hox analyses. I suspect that the CS - non-CS factor is not one that will be interesting. Other factors that come to mind are: game playing - how much real-time game playing with analog control has the user done spatial ability - I think there are some tests you can apply gender - always a good factor, whether it shows differences or not age - might be difficult to tease apart from something like game playing, but it's easy to measure I keep thinking of my sister, who is not a CS but has high spatial abilities and does a lot of drawing, but that's not real time, so may be irrelevant. The point is, by gathering info about your users, you will be able to check the relationship of those variables with ratings. If you can measure time on tasks, even an overall time, you could correlate time with ratings. Do low times imply high ratings? That woud be expected, but make a nice graph. If not, then there might be something interesting going on. I hope this is useful to you.
