The MobiHealth Usability Evaluation Questionnaire
(2005) In eHealth International 2(1). p.9-14- Abstract
- There is a need for high quality evaluation instruments when testing new mobile
devices and services. The aim of this study was to describe the development of the
MobiHealth Usability Evaluation Questionnaire. It was developed in a step-wise
consensus process with close interaction between researchers, technology
developers and end-users. The questionnaire ten dimensions: functionality, user

Questionnaire can be used as a basis for method development when evaluating
mobile care and rehabilitative devices, but it should be tested for reliability before
actual use. (Less)
