Realisticuse is a term used in design, media production, and educational research to describe the extent to which a system, depiction, or scenario supports realistic, practical use in real-world contexts. The concept blends realism—the alignment of properties and behaviors with those of the target domain—with use, the actual tasks, goals, and constraints faced by end users. It emphasizes functional plausibility over mere aesthetic fidelity.
In product design and UX, realisticuse guides the creation of interfaces and workflows that support genuine
Evaluation of realisticuse relies on both qualitative and quantitative methods. Criteria include realism of constraints, fidelity
While higher realism can improve transfer, it may increase cost and complexity. Realisticuse therefore involves balancing
