Summary: | The function-led innovation kit (FLIK) is a web-based research tool (WBRT) that is developed as a platform for interdisciplinary research between design and occupational therapy to assist occupational therapists with their adaptation activities. The current study evaluated the usability of FLIK to gain appropriate recommendations before it is used in real-life experiments. The usability test, a common test to check most computer-based software or phone applications, was administered to gain insights into user interactions with a product to predict their overall experience. The WBRT was run online in a group session with related procedures. Finally, an evaluation question was distributed and the feedback from the participants included Nielsen’s Attributes of Usability Questionnaire (NAU) adapted to the five Likert scale for five participants. The responses were analysed based on NAU attributes to usability: learning, efficiency, memorisation, errors, and satisfaction. The results showed the participants were satisfied with the system but a few improvements suiting the participant’s recommendation were needed. Conclusively, a usability test is a significant method to improve ease of use during the development of a system and to assess user behaviour and experience of a system. Further studies of the UI/UX implementation on the WBRT shall add value to the quantitative usability elements. © 2023, Alam Cipta. All Rights Reserved.
