Computers: Preferences for Computer Software
Description
A local internet service provider (ISP) created two new
versions of its software, with alternative ways of
implementing a new feature. To find the product that
would lead to the highest satisfaction among customers,
the ISP conducted an experiment comparing user preference
for the two new versions versus the existing software.
The ISP ideally wants to find out which of the three
software products causes the highest user satisfaction.
It has identified three major potential lurking variables
that might affect user satisfaction: gender, age, and
hours per week of computer use.format
