Chinese UMUX: Cross-Cultural Adaptation for Perceived Usability Measurement
Yuhui Wang, Jing Chai, Lei Tian
Abstract
A new Usability Metric for User Experience (UMUX) is translated and validated for native Chinese speakers in this study. The forward-backward translation method is applied to translate the UMUX. The results are optimized through structure-back interviews to obtain a final, unambiguous UMUX version. The Chinese version of the UMUX questionnaire is proven to have high reliability, sensitivity, and effectiveness. The correspondence between the Chinese UMUX version, UMUX-LITE, and SUS is also investigated. The results of this work may provide Chinese usability practitioners with a standardized scale after rigorous testing, as well as a closer understanding of the relationship between the three questionnaires in assisting users to make sound choices.
