Avaliação de usabilidade e acessibilidade de redes sociais na perspectiva do daltônico

Abstract

Colorblind individuals miss a lot of information due to the lack of accessibility resources, especially when using internet applications, where the colors of texts and interfaces, for example, have different meanings and often contain essential information for good usability. The research aims to evaluate the usability and accessibility of two social networks, taking into account the perspective of colorblind users. The research methodology is descriptive with a qualitative approach. The evaluation was carried out by 2 evaluators from IFPI - Floriano Campus, through a cognitive walkthrough inspection. Two windows of each of the social networks (Facebook and Instagram) were evaluated respectively, which indicated 87% and 84% respectively, indicating a good evaluation. This research contributes with recommendations for improvements of the evaluated interfaces, which can be used in the construction of usable and accessible software artifacts.
