Polite Don't interrupt the user with modes. Confident Do, don't ask. Flexible Make all actions reversible. Helpful Provide modeless feedback to help users succeed and avoid mistakes.

Pre-attentive vs. Attentive Processing

Pre-attentive processing is the unconscious accumulation of information from the environment. Information that has the highest salience (a stimulus that stands out the most) or relevance to what a person is thinking about is selected for further and more complete analysis by conscious (attentive) processing.

Gestalt

The principle maintains that the human eye sees objects in their entirety before perceiving their individual parts, suggesting the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Design solutions satisfy many requirements and constraints.

Anchoring Effect

The tendency to rely too heavily, or "anchor," on one trait or piece of information when making decisions.

Can Dieter Rams principles of good design be applied to IxD? 81

Good design ... … is aesthetic. … makes a product understandable. … is unobtrusive. … is as little design as possible. … makes a product useful. Dieter Rams
