22. In the recruitment
screener, they might
mention that they’ve
used the Internet to do
bookings. There’s
higher possibility in
China that they have
never done it
themselves, but via
We do, but we don’t
partners, children or
secretary, especially for
older generation (e.g.
over 40s).
TIPS: Pay more attention when recruiting in China. Discuss with
your recruiters. Ask more specific questions during recruitment
such as “tell me briefly about your last online booking”, rather
that “have you previously booked a hotel online?

23. In China, recording is
often being related to
politic or media
press.
Tips: Avoid
participants from
refusing to take part
only when they are
already at the testing
venue, well inform
the participants if the
session is going to be
recorded and make
sure they clearly
understand the
purpose of recording
before you recruit
them.

24. Unlike the West, Chinese need
to be comfortable and trust you
before they can open up and
won’t be afraid to tell you what
they think and feel.
Tips: Start your testing with
quick smalltalk (it could be
anything: food, weather,
holiday). Make them feel
comfortable and gain their trust
within the first 1-2 minutes. Be
sincere, not robotic or
aggressive. Empower the
Small talk & trust participants and give them
confidence to start.

26. Communications
Younger generations are more
opinionated and more open in giving
explanations of what they are thinking.
For many older generations, more effort
might be needed to gather their honest
opinions.
Tips: Ask questions which require them
to elaborate instead of ‘yes’ or ‘no’
