1Which Gestalt Principle says that objects that are near each other appear grouped while objects that are far apart do not? (p14)
- AProximity
- BSimilarity
- CContinuity
- DClosure
2It's better to put borders around related buttons than it is to group them with spacing (where related buttons are close and unrelated buttons are far apart.)
- ATrue
- BFalse
3When related buttons are far apart, it can take the user a little while to figure out they go together.
- ATrue
- BFalse
4Which gestalt principle says that objects that look similar appear grouped?
- ASimilarity
- BProximity
- CContinuity
- DClosure
5It's better to put all form fields close to each other and just put lines between the separate sections because putting space between the groups makes the form feel too complicated to look at.
- ATrue
- BFalse
6When something in a form has sub-options you should make them look similar and put them close together. (p17)
- ATrue
- BFalse
7Which Gestalt principle says our vision sees continuous forms when part of something is blocked out rather than disconnected segments.
- AContinuity
- BProximity
- CSimilarity
- DClosure
8The [blank_start]continuity[blank_end] principle is the reason that slider controls are perceived as one continuous line around the knob rather than two separate line segments.
- Acontinuity
- BClosure
- CCommon fate
9This Gestalt principle says that when we see forms missing some of their parts, we imagine them as whole, like when those Pac-Men came together and made what looked like a triangle (p20)
- AClosure
- BContinuity
- CProximity
- DSimilarity
10When objects are shown in stacks, the Gestalt principle of [blank_start]closure[blank_end] is what makes it so we can perceive the partially hidden objects as whole things.
- Aclosure
- Bcontinuity
- Csymmetry
11This Gestalt principle says our brain tries to break down complex shapes into simpler ones.
- ASymmetry
- BFigure/Ground
- CProximity
- DSimilarity
12This Gestalt principle says our mind separates our visual field into a foreground and background.
- AFigure/Ground
- BSymmetry
- CSimilarity
- DClosure
13When we see two figures of different sizes overlap, like that little triangle overlapping a big circle, we see the smaller figure as [blank_start]the figure[blank_end] and the larger figure as [blank_start]the ground[blank_end].
- Athe figure
- Bthe ground
- Cthe ground
- Dthe figure
14What we perceive as figure and what we perceive as ground is somewhat influenced by where our attention currently is. (p23)
- ATrue
- BFalse
15When a website has a background with text on top of it, the background is the figure and the text is the ground.
- ATrue
- BFalse
16When a page is made dark and a pop up menu shows up floating on it, that menu has temporarily become [blank_start]the figure[blank_end] while the page is temporarily [blank_start]the ground[blank_end].
- Athe figure
- Bthe ground
- Cthe ground
- Dthe figure
17How come when you want a pop up menu to be noticed, it's better to make it float above the page, with the page darkened, than it is to just have it appear somewhere on the page.
- AIt keeps the user from feeling disoriented like they would if maybe the whole screen changed
- BMaking the pop up menu temporarily in the figure draws a lot of attention to it
- CIt's a convention of flat design
- DIt's only good for advertisements and not any other kinds of pop ups
18A big reason why our vision is optimized to quickly see structure is because it's important for us to be able to quickly make sense of objects and events.
- ATrue
- BFalse
19When structuring information, making it terse is bad and writing it more like prose is better for helping people understand quickly.
- ATrue
- BFalse
20If information is terse, structured, and nonrepetitive, then it doesn't matter if it breaks graphic design rules (e.g. alignment)
- ATrue
- BFalse
21What is bad about a list of links like this?
How to renew your driver license in person
How to renew your driver license by mail
How to renew your driver license by internet
How to renew your instruction permit
How to apply for a duplicate driver license or identification (ID) card. etc.- AYou waste your time reading the same words repetitively.
- BThere aren't enough words to explain the links.
- CIt's not layed out so you can quickly get to the section where what you want it is in p30
- DThe driver license stuff should be all in one link.
22What's bad about laying information out like this?
$1,849
Monthly Payment
$318,861.22
Total Interest Paid
$93,750.00
Total Tax Paid- AThe labels come after the figures.
- BThe labels are the same difference from their figure as the figure for the next label.
- CThere should be more space between all the labels.
- DThe labels should be in all caps.
23Why is it so bad if a form doesn't allow people to segment long strings like by putting spaces in between them or by having separate areas for each segment in the field?
- APeople have a harder time verifying they entered it right.
- BPeople feel it takes too long.
- CPeople think the form is more boring.
24It's good to format long text or UI options into a visual hierarchy. What should you keep in mind while doing this?
- ABreaking the information up into distinct sections helps people get to what they want faster.
- BLabel each section prominently so people can quickly tell what it's there for.
- CThe more subsection levels you go down, the less visually dominant they should be.
- DSubsections should look more visually dominant than the levels above them.
- EDon't label subsections if there are plenty of space between them because they will just clutter the interface.
