User Research & Testing FAQ

Common questions about our research methods, participant recruitment, and deliverables

How do you recruit research participants?
We use multiple recruitment channels including professional research panels, social media, your existing customer base, and partner networks. All participants are screened to match your target demographics and usage patterns. We ensure ethical recruitment practices with fair compensation and informed consent.
What's the minimum sample size for reliable results?
For qualitative research, we typically conduct 8-12 interviews per user segment to reach saturation. For quantitative studies, we aim for 100+ responses for basic insights and 300+ for statistical significance. A/B tests require larger samples based on expected effect size and current conversion rates.
Can you research international audiences?
Yes, we conduct research across Europe, North America, and other regions. We work with native speakers for non-English studies and consider cultural differences in methodology. Our Cyprus location provides excellent timezone coverage for European and Middle Eastern research.
How long does data analysis take?
Analysis typically takes 5-7 days after data collection completion. This includes transcription, coding, pattern identification, and synthesis. Complex studies with large datasets may require additional time. We provide preliminary insights during the process for urgent decisions.
What formats do you deliver findings in?
We deliver comprehensive reports in PDF format, interactive personas and journey maps in Figma, recorded sessions for key stakeholders, executive summary presentations, and raw data files when requested. All deliverables are customized to your team's needs and technical capabilities.
Do you handle sensitive or confidential research?
Absolutely. We have experience with healthcare, financial services, and other regulated industries. All team members sign comprehensive NDAs, data is encrypted and stored securely, and we follow GDPR and industry-specific compliance requirements.
Can you test prototypes and concepts?
Yes, we test everything from paper sketches to interactive prototypes to live products. We adapt our methodology based on fidelity level and research objectives. Early-stage concept testing helps validate ideas before development, while prototype testing refines specific interactions and flows.
How do you ensure research quality and reliability?
We use standardized protocols, multiple researchers for cross-validation, record sessions for accuracy verification, triangulate findings across different methods, and follow peer review processes. All methodology and findings are documented for transparency and reproducibility.
