Abstract: | In this paper, explored is the use of tangible attributes derived from the physical business domain (here as: bus-dom.) as a technique for designing an interface (as: int-f./int-fs.) effectively supporting experiential tasks (as: exp-ts). A laboratory experiment was designed and conducted to test the impact of two types of int-fs. and bus-dom. familiarity when completing exp-ts. Because consumers need to recall and retain information (as: info.) to evaluate products/services or to make brand associations, retention/recall (as: ret./rec.) of info. was measured on both the day of the treatment and after a 2-day lag. It is shown that the int-f. based on the bus-dom. metaphor stimulated higher levels of ret./rec. of info., thus providing the desired support for exp-ts. In addition, users with weaker bus-dom. familiarity showed the greatest improvement in ret./rec., especially after a 2-day lag, when using the int-f. with the bus-dom. metaphor design. |
