Abstract:
In this paper, we describe a proposal set of Web accessibility guidelines of interaction and interface design for people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to help Web professionals to design accessible Web interfaces for these users. The guidelines were extracted from an exploratory bibliographic survey of 17 works published between 2005 and 2015 including international recommendations, commercial or academic software and peer-reviewed papers. We identified 107 guidelines that were grouped in 10 categories using the affinity diagram technique. Then, we systematized the guidelines in each group according to similarities and duplicated statements, generating a set of 28 guidelines. As a result, we evidenced best practices to design accessible Web interfaces for people with ASD based on well succeeded solutions presented in works of different contexts. With those results, we aim to contribute to the state of the art of cognitive Web accessibility. Therefore, we intend to make the set of guidelines available in a repository on GitHub.
