Given our own experiences about how our work had changed, we were curious: How has the pandemic changed and shaped UX research. We conducted a survey that addressed the following questions: Compared to how we worked two years ago with what we’re working now, how have we changed? And, perhaps more interestingly, What will we doing two years from now? The survey was launched in 4Q2021 on social media (predominantly LinkedIn) asking UX researchers questions about how their work has changed because of the pandemic. We received over 100 responses. Our aim was to listen primarily to those who were doing UX research for the majority of their time (i.e. excluding UI/UX design or UI programming), and those who had been engaged in UX research prior to the pandemic. Everyone in the sample had three or more years of experience (with more than 50% having more than six years’ experience). Seventy-five percent of respondents had a team reporting to them. In the end, we whittled the feedback down to 63 respondents from 22 countries, who represented UX research from in-house, agency, and government environments. From their responses, we found that the effects of the pandemic impacted four aspects: The demand for UX research, The size of the research team, A change in methods The increase in UX research skills.
