We went out this Friday for a new user testing that started at 10:00 am and ended at 14:00, in order to check the signs once more.
The emphasis this time was on finding differences between the scriptures written with a computer font to the scriptures written by hand writing.
For this user testing we three steps:
The first step was to check the sign that was manually rewritten again to reinforce our previous conclusions that a simple sign with a marker on a white cardboard indicates greater courtesy among passengers towards drivers. This sign was tested on three different drivers.
At this stage we got a confirmation of our first conclusion that ruled that simply written in hand signes leads to a higher degree of courtesy.
In the next video you will be able to an example for a passenger using the drivers name "Asher" to thank the driver. In other words, courtesy was affected by the sign.
The next step was a Dapi testing with LED lights and a sign printed using a computer font.
At this stage we can say that people did notice Dapi's existence and turned and gazed to him, but at the same time, we were unable to recognize the courtesy that was created as a result of the sign. In other words, although people said thank you and hello, we can not necessarily say that it was created as a result of Dapi, because there was no use of the name "Moses" like in the sign.
During the last stage we replaced the card that was written in a computerized font with the same handwritten copy.
First to create the card we had to write the handwritten sentence with a black marker on a white sheet. Then at the laboratory we scanned the handwritten sentence into the computer and with the help of Ann, we were able to turn the text into a document that can be cut with a laser cut
When checking the sign with the a hand written font, it was obvious that people were turning their eyes to Dapi
and we even managed to identify one woman who was affected by the sign during a phone call.
The conclusions we conclude from these tests are that the font in hand writing does have a different effect on the behavior of passengers and leads to greater courtesy than a computerized font.
