I am a MSc Software Engineering student at the University of Liverpool and I am currently working on my dissertation project; researching into web usability with specific focus on colour blind and other forms of visually impaired users.
My research aims to identify the difficulties faced by these users in order to then produce a framework which can be used by web developers to aid in the development/design of sites which meets the needs of visually impaired users.

Hello everyone,
I am conducting research for my dissertation on colour blindness and web usability and I am looking for people to complete a short survey.
You do not have to be colour blind to participate as all info gathered will provide essential insight and will really help with my research.
The survey, including a short colour blind test, will take approx. 15 minutes to complete and all participants will be put into a prize draw to win a £20 Amazon voucher which will take place on February 29th 2016.
The link for the survey can be found below along with links to documents explaining the purpose of the research and how your data will be handled.
