Hande Burcu Deniz

Hande’s research aims to explore how we can leverage workplaces to support users’ mental well-being by reducing stress. To do this, she is combining both qualitative and quantitative methods, and conducting experiments in virtual reality to test the existing hypotheses. Although her dissertation is in the environment and behavior field, she is also interested in user research. In her current work, she is conducting experiments to understand the usability of an AR measurement tool to expand the usage of their app. In this project, she is collecting both qualitative and quantitative data to provide more insight from users.
