Why is a tax form worrying when it is still in the envelope?
![Page 4: Getting started-for-upa2010](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070304/54c65d1b4a7959e9438b4635/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
The relationship of forms:the goals of user and organisation
• Users and their goals– Who are the users?
– What do they want to achieve by filling in this form?
– Where are they filling it in?
– How do they feel about it?
• Organisations and their goals– What are they collecting this data for?
– Who will make a decision based on this data?

The appearance of forms:if it looks good, it will be easier to use
