Title:
“Cross-cultural” or “intercultural” – some findings on international usability testingAuthor:
Honold, P.Abstract:
Within the field of psychology, there is a profound difference between cross-cultural psychology on the one hand and intercultural and cultural psychology on the other hand. These approaches differ significantly as far as theories and methodologies are concerned. According to my experience, an understanding of these differences can help in making decisions concerning the design of how to conduct usability testing in different cultures.Original publication:
