Toward TPC-UX: UX Topics in TPC Journals 2013-2022
Journal of Technical Writing and Communication, v54 n3 p324-356 2024
This article offers a content analysis of technical and professional communication articles related to user experience (TPC-UX) published between 2013 and 2022 in six TPC scholarly journals. This analysis reveals that TPC-UX primarily focuses on product and process topics and illustrates the terminological comingling of "user experience" and "usability." Specific TPC-UX topics identified include "theory," "multimodality," "health and medicine," "localization," "web design," "mobile applications," "accessibility," and "content strategy." These topics suggest that TPC-UX's key affordances are its attunement to networked power dynamics, its theoretically rich treatment of multimodality, and its strategies for navigating contextual complexities.
