Human-computer interaction

how readily novice users produce the intended input for a referent without instruction, raised by building symbol or gesture sets from users' own proposals.

In human-computer interaction, guessability refers to how readily novice users produce the intended input for a referent without instruction, raised by building symbol or gesture sets from users' own proposals. This meaning comes from Wobbrock (2005) in CHI '05 Extended Abstracts on Human Factors in Computing Systems.[1]
