This week we presented our work so far to the Dean of Psychology at Reichman university:
Overview-> Living in a big city without a sense of community forms difficulties connecting with your surroundings, Which can create feelings of loneliness, impaired health, risk behaviors, low subjective well-being, and risk of depression.
Findings from the Interviews with 15 users:
All users don't know the people living in their neighborhoods.
Most users are interested to get to know the people living around them.
All users are open to joining activities that people who live around them will initiate.
Most of the users are willing to initiate activities themselves.
Research showed that a community organization creates opportunities for people to get to know each other and work together. In addition, People who had difficulty finding friends in the neighborhood were the first to find social life in local organizations. People with similar characteristics are most likely to form a community on their own without outside assistance.
Our Research Question is Will joint activities create a sense of belonging among community members, in communities based on geographical proximity?
We also improved our screens, after a meeting with UI experts and UX writing experts.
Our new screens :
We conducted user testing with 5 users:
We will keep updating you next week (:
