Intuitive use
• Intuitive use is unconscious application of pre-existing knowledge IUUI
• Sounds like expert knowledge…• For larger user groups it must be different knowledge
– early learning, frequent encoding and retrieval, shared

Image Schemas in User Interfaces
• Physical Mapping • Metaphorical Mapping

Image Schemas: metaphorical extensions
• Quantity: MORE IS UP
– Speak up please. Keep your voice down please.
• Quality: GOOD IS UP
– We hit a peak last year, but it’s been downhill ever since
• Quality: VIRTUE IS UP
– She is an upstanding citizen. That was a low-down thing to do.
• Power and Control: HIGH STATUS IS UP
– He’s climbing the career ladder. He’s at the bottom of the social hierarchy.

Image Schemas
• FORCE– attraction, balance, blockage, compulsion, counterforce, diversion,
enablement,momentum, restraint removal, resistance
• SPACE– center-periphery, contact, front-back, left-right, near-far, path, rotation,
scale, up-down
• CONTAINMENT– container, in-out, content, full-empty, surface
• PROCESS– iteration, cycle
• MULTIPLICITY– merging, collection, splitting, part-whole, count-mass, linkage, matching
• ATTRIBUTE– straight, warm-cold, big-small, bright-dark, fast-slow, hard-soft, heavy-
light, strong-weak, rough-smooth

Metaphorical Extensions
• FORCE– attraction, balance, blockage, compulsion, counterforce, diversion,
enablement,momentum, restraint removal, resistance
• SPACE– center-periphery, contact, front-back, left-right, near-far, path, rotation,
scale, up-down
• CONTAINMENT– container, in-out, content, full-empty, surface
• PROCESS– iteration, cycle
• MULTIPLICITY– merging, collection, splitting, part-whole, count-mass, linkage, matching
• ATTRIBUTE– straight, warm-cold, big-small, bright-dark, fast-slow, hard-soft, heavy-
light, strong-weak, rough-smooth
SIMILAR IS NEAR
IMPORTANT IS CENTRAL
GENERAL IS UP
CONSIDERED IS NEAR
DIFFICULTIES ARE HEAVY
GOOD IS BRIGHT
EVENTS ARE PATHS
GOOD IS STRAIGHT
AFFECTION IS WARMTH
COMPARISON IS BALANCE
PROBLEMS ARE BLOCKAGES
TIME IS A CONTAINER

Testing Image Schema Theory
1. Does it make valid claims for the design of user interfaces?
2. Does it support the UI design process?
3. Does it lead to new insights about designing user interfaces? Does it contributes to the understanding in the field of designing user interfaces?

Experiments, e.g. UP-DOWN, LEFT-RIGHT
• Violation and Respectation of metaphors
• Buttons and Sliders
• Quality and Quantity Metaphors
• Measuring response time and subjective judgment

• We have some support for each of these requirements, but this is just the beginning…– More research must follow
