summary

A field study tests the GenderMag inspection method with four software teams across three U.S. organizations using four personas (notably the Abby persona) and a gender-specialized cognitive walkthrough built around five empirically grounded facets. Teams find 25% of features have gender-inclusiveness issues and uncover another ~30% generic usability problems (55% total); some teams implement fixes within weeks, the method is beta and downloadable, and it focuses on problem-solving software.
