User experience in a collaborative 3D virtual environment: A framework for analyzing user interviews

Our goal is to test and develop the user experience of a collaborative immersive 3D space in VirCA with shared digital representations of documents and other information. The more realistic the environment is, the more effective is the collaborative spatial search. In this paper we are aiming to study the user experience of this virtual environment using interviews. A framework of content analytic categories are developed, and presented. The categories were implemented in and the interviews were analysed with the method of content analysis, with ATLAS.ti.6 software. The system of content analytic categories is aimed to be used in our future researches.
