Résumé:
The number of people suffering from Alzheimer’s disease is increasing. In a world which is more and more dependent on computing and internet, this group of user is be-coming technologically isolated, due to the ill-suited design of user interfaces. Thus, in this paper, we propose a set of accessibility guidelines for designing user interfaces for adults diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. These recommendations are identified after a comprehensive review of the literature. We identify 146 design guidelines that are grouped under 11 categories and 9 criterions. The aim of this work is to ensure that software applications and websites become accessible and easy to use to this demographic. The result of this work is a set of design guidelines, helpful for developers, designers, content producers, researchers and usability specialists. The proposed set of accessibility recommendations were applied for designing the user interfaces of a software application that target Alzheimer’s patients (CAPTAIN MEMO memory prosthesis). Then, we evaluated the accessibility of the developed user interfaces. 24 Alzheimer’s disease patients entered the study. The results confirmed that the developed user interfaces are accessible.
