The science behind sound’s influence on user perception and emotion—and how to design, evaluate, and enhance sound-driven experiences across diverse products and interfaces.

The book delves into sound’s role in user experience research as an element of sensory design, exploring the unique challenges posed by sound in product designDrawing on decades of consulting and research in sound, the book answers what questions UX researchers should be asking when it comes to sound, along with how to approach testing these questions—from the importance of testing locations to the technologies and methods used.
