Psycho information architecture!

TFPL regularly runs training events for its temporary recruitment candidates. 

Last night, over 30 of then heard Alan Flett describe how psychological theories and methodologies, coupled with computer-based analysis, can help us understand users' mental models and build better information architectures.  This is done by using psychological interview approaches with users and analysing the outputs via computer aided clustering techniques.

The outputs can be used to inform information architecture design.  The results are evidence based, user focused taxonomies and wireframes etc that are capable of evolution and refinement.
