Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today there are 77 million Baby Boomers living in the U.S., meaning, 10,000 people will be turning 65 years old every day. Currently, most Boomers aren’t in assisted living … yet. However, they will be moving into senior housing in droves over the next couple of decades. Add to this the increasing numbers of Boomer’s parents already making this transition. With limited resources available at this time, planning for assisted living can be overwhelming for those who are making difficult choices for their loved ones (or themselves). These choices have only been complicated and made more urgent by the Covid 19 pandemic.

Book excerpt: An understanding of psychology—specifically the psychology behind how users behave and interact with digital interfaces—is perhaps the single most valuable nondesign skill a designer can have. The most elegant design can fail if it forces users to conform to the design rather than working within the "blueprint" of how humans perceive and process the world around them. This practical guide explains how you can apply key principles in psychology to build products and experiences that are more intuitive and human-centered. Author Jon Yablonski deconstructs familiar apps and experiences to provide clear examples of how UX designers can build experiences that adapt to how users perceive and process digital interfaces. You’ll learn: How aesthetically pleasing design creates positive responses The principles from psychology most useful for designers How these psychology principles relate to UX heuristics Predictive models including Fitts’s law, Jakob’s law, and Hick’s law Ethical implications of using psychology in design A framework for applying these principles
