2023-01-15: A Summary of "Methodology for heuristic evaluation of the accessibility of statistical charts for people with low vision and color vision deficiency"
The research work addressed in the paper "Methodology for heuristic evaluation of the accessibility of statistical charts for people with low vision and color vision deficiency," published by Rubén Alcaraz MartÃnez , Mireia Ribera , Toni Granollers Saltiveri (2021), focuses on formulating a set of heuristics to assess statistical chart's usability while concentrating on the requirements of those with low vision (LV) and color vision deficiency (CVD). To do this, the authors created a set of heuristics based on the methodology defined by Quiñones et al. in the paper "A methodology to develop usability/user experience heuristics". The authors conducted two evaluations after establishing the first version of the set of heuristics (17 indicators). Following the assessments, the authors expanded the list to 18 indicators, and other changes were made, including a more straightforward scoring system and additional documentation for evaluators. This study was the fi...
