摘要

一项在线调查(N = 810)检查了设计最佳实践对最终用户许可协议(eula)的感知可用性的影响。根据最佳实践(不改变EULA的条款和条件)重新设计EULA导致更高的感知可用性，而对态度(感知条件的合理性)和行为(预期的协议和使用)项目的反应不受影响。读者(经常阅读EULA的人)(a)对EULA提供了更积极的评价，(b)比非读者更有可能预期同意EULA条款。这些结果表明，文档设计中的最佳实践可以提高最终用户许可协议的可用性。

End-User License Agreements (EULAs)

An online survey (N = 810) examined the impact of design best practices on the perceived usability of End-User License Agreements (EULAs). Redesigning a EULA according to best-practices (without changing the EULA’s terms and conditions) led to higher perceived usability while responses to attitudinal (perceived reasonableness of conditions) and behavioral (anticipated agreement and use) items were unaffected. Readers (who reported reading EULAs frequently) (a) provided more positive evaluations of EULAs and (b) were more likely to anticipate agreeing to EULA terms than non-readers. These results suggest that best practices in document design can improve the usability of End-User License Agreements.

期刊介绍： Information Design Journal (IDJ) is a peer reviewed international journal that bridges the gap between research and practice in information design. IDJ is a platform for discussing and improving the design, usability, and overall effectiveness of ‘content put into form’ — of verbal and visual messages shaped to meet the needs of particular audiences. IDJ offers a forum for sharing ideas about the verbal, visual, and typographic design of print and online documents, multimedia presentations, illustrations, signage, interfaces, maps, quantitative displays, websites, and new media. IDJ brings together ways of thinking about creating effective communications for use in contexts such as workplaces, hospitals, airports, banks, schools, or government agencies.
