Preface
The master's thesis in front of you was written by Alessia Ruf as part of the research on Human-Computer Interaction at the Center for Cognitive Psychology and Methodology at the University of Basel. The research group on HumanComputer Interaction consists of a team of researchers and students inspired to explore the interaction between humans and interactive technical systems. This thriving research area covers a vast field of topics spanning from the world of digital games to facets of user-friendly websites to questions on the creation and effectiveness of e-learning applications.
