Resumo: | The owner instruction need to contain information for protect the companies as well as the users to the risk of accidents. Also as to provide information that address the needs of users into the usage contexts, ensuring the safe and efficient use of the product. This study evaluated the interaction between the owner instruction of mobiles devices and individuals of different ages. The procedure adopted as a method was developed by Interfaces Laboratory staff for "Usability evaluation of interfaces in consumer electronics products". It consists of two steps: heuristic evaluation and accuracy evaluation with which actions are performed. Was evaluated owner instructions of seven products. For the product evaluation, the sample consisted of six individuals, three of the male and three female genres, in the following age ranges: less than 25 years, between 25 and 50 years and above 50 years. Missing information and disability to the figures were the causes of the subjects failed to understand or to the high level of misunderstanding certain operating procedures. Many of the technical terms were unknown to the individuals, which caused trouble distinguishing features indicated in step procedure, preventing the user to explore the various options that the product offers. The information, sometimes presented as inaccurate if characterized as incomprehensible, they are difficult to understand. An owner Instruction must contain sufficient information to enable the user to use the product efficiently and safely. |

An owner Instruction must contain sufficient information to enable the user to use the product efficiently and safely.Os manuais de instruções necessitam conter informações que protejam as empresas de usos “imprevistos” e de riscos de acidentes e, ao mesmo tempo, fornecer informações que contemplem as necessidades dos usuários e de contextos de utilização, garantindo o uso seguro e eficiente do produto. Este estudo avaliou a interação entre sujeitos pertencentes a diferentes faixas etárias e o manual de instruções de aparelhos celulares. O trabalho foi executado pelo método desenvolvido pela equipe do Laboratório Interfaces para “Avaliação da usabilidade das interfaces em produtos eletroeletrônicos”, composto por duas etapas: Avaliação heurística e Teste de precisão das ações. Foram avaliados manuais de instruções de sete marcas de aparelhos. Para a avaliação do produto, a amostra foi constituída por seis indivíduos, três do sexo masculino e três do sexo feminino, nas seguintes faixas etárias: menos de 25 anos, entre 25 e 50 anos e acima de 50 anos. A falta de informações e incapacidade das figuras foram as causas dos sujeitos não conseguirem entender ou para o alto nível de compreensão errada de certos procedimentos operacionais. Muitos dos termos técnicos eram desconhecidos para os indivíduos, o que causaram problemas para distinguir características indicadas no procedimento, evitando que o usuário explorasse as várias opções que o produto oferecia. As informações, às vezes, apresentada como imprecisa se caracterizava como incompreensíveis, ou difíceis de entender. Um Manual de Instruções deve conter informações suficientes para que o usuário possa utilizar o produto com eficiência e segurança.Associação Brasileira de Engenharia de Produção2016-06-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfaudio/mpeghttps://www.producaoonline.org.br/rpo/article/view/186010.14488/1676-1901.v16i2.1860Revista Produção Online; Vol. 16 No. 2 (2016); 441-474Revista Produção Online; v. 16 n. 2 (2016); 441-4741676-1901reponame:Revista Produção Onlineinstname:Associação Brasileira de Engenharia de Produção (ABEPRO)instacron:ABEPROporhttps://www.producaoonline.org.br/rpo/article/view/1860/1396https://www.producaoonline.org.br/rpo/article/view/1860/1412Copyright (c) 2016 Revista Produção Onlineinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Vania EugêniaBifano, Amelia Carla SobrinhoOliveira, Luciana AparecidaRoberto, Lígia Cristina OliveiraFerreira, Eloíse Garcia2016-06-15T05:49:13Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/1860Revistahttp://producaoonline.org.br/rpoPUBhttps://www.producaoonline.org.br/rpo/oai||producaoonline@gmail.com1676-19011676-1901opendoar:2016-06-15T05:49:13Revista Produção Online - Associação Brasileira de Engenharia de Produção (ABEPRO)false |
