Abstract:

Entrepreneurship is a very important process to increase economic growth because it encourages innovation

and creates new jobs. In entrepreneurship, mindfulness is required as it affects entrepreneurial practices and

psychological well-being for entrepreneurs. With mindfulness, entrepreneurs become more aware of the cur-

rent situation so that they can take advantage of the current situation to create better business solutions. The

entrepreneurial mindfulness application is developed in the form of a mobile application with the aim that

entrepreneurs can self diagnose anywhere and anytime so that they can easily ﬁnd out the level of mindfulness

they have. To fulﬁll this purpose, the application needs to get feedback from users. Therefore, this study aims

to determine the UI/UX quality of the application through responses from users. UI/UX evaluation is con-

ducted using Neuroresearch methods with an emphasis on explanatory research in the form of user surveys.

The questions contained in the survey were made based on the Eight Golden Rules by Ben Shneiderman. The

number of espondents who took the survey was 31 and the results of the survey provided some insight into

the user experience when using the application. The results of this study show that the appearance and ﬂow

of the application have been able to provide a fairly good experience to users. However, there were also some

suggestions and criticisms of the appearance and ﬂow of the application. Therefore, some improvements were

made and some displays were added to the application to increase user satisfaction in using the Entrepreneurial

Mindfulness application.

1 INTRODUCTION

Entrepreneurship is the fundamental process of creat-

ing or starting a new venture to identify and develop

opportunities for growth and success. Entrepreneur-

ship plays an important role in the economy as it

drives innovation, creates jobs, and promotes eco-

nomic growth (Malecki, 2018). In recent years, tech-

nologies such as mobile computing, cloud computing,

social media, data analytics, etc. have become var-

ious aspects of innovation in entrepreneurship. En-

trepreneurship is also changing the nature of uncer-

tainty inherent in the process and outcome of en-

trepreneurship and how to deal with such uncertainty

(Nambisan, 2017).

Entrepreneurship is a strategic component in the

world of practitioners and academics on a national

and international scale to build a competitive advan-

tage. The concept of entrepreneurship is now not only

owned by entrepreneurs but has begun to be intro-

duced to students in schools. At the higher educa-

tion level, students are equipped with entrepreneurial

practices to prepare them to enter the world of work.

Competition in the industry 4.0 era characterized by

various technological advances and knowledge shifts

has demanded new, more complex competencies (In-

drianti et al., 2020), (Nowi

nski et al., 2019).

Entrepreneurial practice is synonymous with sit-

uations of uncertainty, high risk, uncertain roles and

increasingly ﬁerce competition. Entrepreneurs who

are able to harmonize their thoughts and adjust them-

selves so that they are able to take concrete actions

based on the right intentions, strategies and consider-

ations are mindfulness entrepreneurs (Indrianti et al.,

2020).

Mindfulness is a human’s awareness of events

happening in the present moment and will inﬂuence

how the human responds to those events. The ef-

fects that mindfulness plays in organizational and

business settings have been considered using a sam-

ple of employees and principals, while the topic has

been brieﬂy explored in entrepreneurship and in fam-

ily businesses. Family businesses represent single or-

ganizations that need to manage some emotional logic

to survive in the long term. Mindfulness has emerged

as an important concept as it stimulates the ability

to focus on the present moment (Plana-Farran et al.,

2022).

Mindfulness has an important role for each in-

dividual in facing difﬁculties and making decisions.

Mindfulness of each individual needs to be developed

from an early age, the role of parents is needed in ed-

ucating their children because it will affect their mo-

tivation in entrepreneurship in the future. Mindful-

ness not only affects the health and life of individu-

als but also affects their work and career, including

the formation of adolescents’ human capital, sense of

job success, work adaptability, and even attitude to

change (Shan and Tian, 2022), (Liu et al., 2022).

The development of mindfulness in the practice of

entrepreneurship is the basis for developing a mobile

application. Mobile applications have an increasingly

signiﬁcant role in this day and age. Since November

2016, there is more network trafﬁc created by mobile

devices with a percentage of 48.19% than desktops

or laptops which have a percentage of 47% (Tashildar

et al., 2020). Google has also announced that every

day there are 500,000 new android users (Hoehle and

Venkatesh, 2015).

Therefore, it is necessary to develop a mobile ap-

plication to increase the use of entrepreneurial mind-

fulness.Through the developed application, people

can self-diagnose with the aim of measuring their

level of mindfulness so that people can improve their

mindfulness as needed in industry 4.0. The level of

mindfulness contained in this application is divided

into 7 levels. After taking the test, users can ﬁnd out

the position of mindfulness they have along with an

explanation and some suggestions on how to improve

mindfulness so as to achieve a balance between en-

trepreneurial pressure and having fun. This applica-

tion uses a machine learning model to determine a

person’s entrepreneurial mindfulness level (Oktavius

et al., 2022).

The Entrepreneurial Mindfulness app was devel-

oped not only to fulﬁll the purpose of allowing en-

trepreneurs to see their level of mindfulness but also

to feel comfortable when using the app. A good

UI/UX in an application aims to ensure that the ap-

pearance and use of the application can be done eas-

ily and comfortably. With good UI/UX, app users

can easily ﬁnd important information according to

their wants and needs and feel comfortable in using

the app. In addition, the application must have good

UI/UX because in this industry 4.0 era, people use

mobile devices anywhere and anytime so that the ease

of use of the application is important to fulﬁll the ob-

jectives of this research.

2 LITERATURE REVIEW

2.1 Mindfulness and Entrepreneurial

Mindfulness, deﬁned as ”receptive attention and

awareness of present events and experiences”

(Gelderen et al., 2019). ”Mindfulness involves inten-

tionally bringing one’s attention to the internal and

external experiences occurring in the present moment

and is often taught through various meditation prac-

tices”. Meditation is a formal expression of mind-

fulness and is one of the most researched self-help

interventions to date. Mindfulness training has been

shown to have many beneﬁts. It not only reduces

stress and improves well-being, but also increases

awareness, empathy, compassion, and the ability to

observe oneself, as well as providing cognitive and

behavioral ﬂexibility (Kelly and Dorian, 2017).

The deﬁnition of mindfulness describes non-

judgment and openness. By cultivating non-

judgment, we generate acceptance. Non-judgmental

acceptance sets the stage for developing empathy, an

important component of relationships. Empathy is

one of the abilities to understand the feelings of others

over time. Mindfulness-based practices enable one to

realize this humanistic ideal, evident in all relation-

ships, including business (Kelly and Dorian, 2017).

With a high level of mindfulness, it will help an

entrepreneur to make the right decisions by taking

into account the various conditions and problems that

exist today (Gelderen et al., 2019), (Kelly and Dorian,

2017).

2.2 Mobile Application Development

The Entrepreneurial Mindfulness application was cre-

ated using Flutter framework as the frontend and

Flask framework as the backend. Flutter is used to

create the application display where users will inter-

act with the application. Flask is used to process data

which is then stored in a MySQL database and pro-

cess user answers when taking tests using Artiﬁcial

UI/UX Evaluation on Entrepreneurial Mindfulness Mobile Application

219

Intelligence to determine the results of the test.

Flutter is a cross-platform framework used to de-

velop applications that can run on Android, iOS, and

Google’s next-generation operating system, Fuschia.

Flutter itself was created by Google and published

in 2016. Flutter uses the Dart programming lan-

guage which is the successor to Javascript and incor-

porates many features in the Javascript ES7 standard,

Dart also uses the concept of Object Oriented Pro-

gramming (OOP) (Mamoun et al., 2020)(Kurnia and

Aditya, 2022)(Hassan, 2022)

In developing applications using Flutter, an archi-

tecture called Model View View-Model (MVVM) is

used to distribute roles and responsibilities strictly be-

tween objects. By using MVVM, all data logic prepa-

ration for the UI will be placed in the View-Model ob-

ject which will be displayed in the View. The Model

itself is used to organize the data that will be used in

the form of objects (Aljamea and Alkandari, 2018).

Provider in Flutter is a library that works by wrap-

ping multiple widgets and sending changing state in-

formation to the components or widgets inside. The

Provider will notify the observer (Consumer) when

data changes in the class that manages the state

(ChangeNotiﬁer). Later, Consumer and ChangeNo-

tiﬁer will communicate through ChangeNotiﬁer-

Provider (Mantik et al., 2021). In the development

of this application, Provider will be used as a View-

Model in MVVM architecture

2.3 Flask REST APIs

Flask is a lightweight python-based application

framework designed for fast and easy application de-

velopment, with capabilities that can serve millions

of users or clients. Flask has 2 main components,

Werkzeug and Jinja2. Werkzeug is responsible for

providing routing, debugging, and Web Server Gate-

way Interface (WSGI). While Jinja2 is used as a tem-

plate engine. Flask has a fairly large and active com-

munity with hundreds of open-source extensions (Re-

lan, 2019).

Representational State Transfer (REST) is a soft-

ware architecture style for web services that provides

an Application Programming Interface (API) for data

exchange between multiple systems. Web services or

API is a web application that will interact with other

applications to exchange data. REST architecture al-

lows the requesting system or application to access

and manipulate data using a uniform and predeﬁned

set of stateless operations (Relan, 2019).

2.4 Integration and Usability Testing

The integration testing method is the most frequent

and important type of testing in software testing,

where each unit or component is tested for connec-

tivity with all existing units (Janaki, 2021). The main

purpose of the test method is to place the units in the

desired environment and exercise their complete in-

teraction. This test method will evaluate how well the

interface has performed. In this test method, there are

3 criteria, namely All-modules, All-multiplerelations,

and All-call-sequences. All-modules will test each

unit at least once. All-multiple-relations will test all

relationships between units. All-call-sequences will

test the ﬂow or running order of the application (De-

lamaro et al., 2001).

The usability testing method will be carried out

by giving some speciﬁc tasks to users who have never

used the application before. With this approach, infor-

mation will be obtained about the comfort and level of

ease in using this application carried out by users with

natural human thinking (Ahmad et al., 2014). Usabil-

ity itself can be deﬁned as ”the extent to which a prod-

uct can be used by speciﬁc users to achieve speciﬁc

goals with effectiveness, efﬁciency, and satisfaction

in a speciﬁc context of use” (Weichbroth, 2020).

2.5 User Interface and User Experience

User interface (UI) in information technology refers

to the symbol or command structure used in Human

Computer Interaction (HCI). User interface can be

deﬁned as an interactive system display where users

can interact with the system through the display on

the smartphone screen. The user interface includes

menus and various features contained in the appli-

cation to control or do something according to the

wishes and needs of the user (Joo et al., 2014). Creat-

ing an effective UI is one area that is always empha-

sized because an effective UI provides the potential to

improve the overall performance of the system (Pun-

choojit and Hongwarittorrn, 2017). There are also

several studies related to the development of mobile

applications by paying attention to the user interface

during the process of making the application display

design (Khairul et al., 2020), (Gkatzidou et al., 2015).

User experience (UX) refers to the perceptions

and feelings of users resulting from the use of a sys-

tem, product, or service, including emotions, beliefs,

preferences, etc (Chen et al., 2020), (Sauer et al.,

2020). UX can also be considered as the quality of in-

teractive technology that focuses on people not prod-

ucts. In UX, we can see the emotions of the user

when using the application which will be an indica-

ICAISD 2023 - International Conference on Advanced Information Scientiﬁc Development

220

tor to see whether the user is satisﬁed and comfort-

able with the appearance of the application (Dirin and

Laine, 2018). Factors that inﬂuence UX are the driv-

ing factors that trigger user satisfaction and dissatis-

faction. In addition, user satisfaction depends on the

user’s existing needs, expectations, and experiences

(Chen et al., 2020).

Based on the importance of UI/UX in mobile ap-

plication development, it is necessary to evaluate the

appearance of the entrepreneurial mindfulness appli-

cation to determine user satisfaction when using the

application and get suggestions regarding the appear-

ance of the application. Evaluation of UI/UX in this

application uses the Eight Golden Rules of Interface

Design by Ben Shneiderman which consists of:

1. Strive for consistency.

2. Cater to universal usability.

3. Offer informative feedback.

4. Design dialogs to yield closure.

5. Prevent errors.

6. Permit easy reversal of actions.

7. Support internal locus of control.

8. Reduce short-term memory load (Paryudi and

Fenz, 16th).

Based on the Eight Golden Rules, a questionnaire

was created as a survey that was distributed to get re-

sponses from users. The questionnaire uses a Likert

scale where each number will be given a statement

then users can respond by choosing between strongly

disagree, disagree, undecided, agree, and strongly

agree. The statements given in the questionnaire in-

clude:

1. The icons used in the application already describe

the function of the feature

2. The localization feature (Indonesian and English)

makes it easier for users to understand the expla-

nations in the application.

3. The dark mode and light mode features provide

comfort to the eyes of users in using this applica-

tion.

4. The information provided by the application after

you perform an action is clear and informative so

that you know what steps you should take next.

5. The ﬂow of the application when taking the test

is clear, starting from the beginning of the test in-

structions to the release of the test results.

6. Error messages in the application such as on the

registration / registration page are sufﬁcient to ex-

plain the error so that you know what to ﬁx.

7. Users can easily cancel the action performed by

pressing the back button.

8. You feel comfortable with the appearance and

ﬂow of the application.

9. The structure of the application display makes it

easy for you to understand the ﬂow of the appli-

cation.

10. The button placement is good and easy to reach

by the user’s hand.

Based on the explanation above, the main purpose

of UI/UX evaluation is to improve the application to

make it easier to use, efﬁcient, and can make users

feel comfortable when using the application. UI/UX

has a very important role because the application is

expected to be in accordance with user expectations

in terms of appearance design and function of each

feature in the application (Punchoojit and Hongwarit-

torrn, 2017). Therefore, UI/UX evaluation of the en-

trepreneurial mindfulness application is needed to in-

crease user satisfaction with the application so that the

purpose of the application that will provide beneﬁts to

entrepreneurs can be achieved.

3 RESEARCH METHOD

The research method used is the Neuroresearch

method with the explanatory research stage through

a survey conducted to users of the Entrepreneurial

Mindfulness application (Sasmoko et al., 2018). This

research started with developing a survey by consid-

ering the Eight Golden Rules by Ben Shneiderman.

After the survey questions were developed, the survey

was distributed to Entrepreneurial Mindfulness users

to get their feedback after using the Entrepreneurial

Mindfulness app.

The survey involved 31 respondents with demo-

graphic data dominated by 73.3% male respondents

and 27.3% female respondents. The survey results ob-

tained were then analyzed and obtained some sugges-

tions and criticisms which then became the basis for

improving the quality of the appearance and ﬂow of

the application to increase user satisfaction and com-

fort when using the application.

4 RESULT AND DISCUSSION

In this research, the appearance of the features con-

tained in the Entrepreneurial Mindfulness application

is made by paying attention to the user interface and

user experience so as to increase user satisfaction in

UI/UX Evaluation on Entrepreneurial Mindfulness Mobile Application

221

using the application. Some of the main features on-

tained in the Entrepreneurial Mindfulness application

are as follows.

Figure 1: Percentage of respondents by gender.

1. Login and Register

Users need to log in ﬁrst using an email and pass-

word to access several features such as taking

tests, viewing test history, and viewing test re-

sults. If the user does not have an account, the

user can register ﬁrst by entering some personal

data such as name, email, date of birth, address,

and so on. After registering, the application will

send an OTP code to the user’s email and then the

user is asked to enter the OTP code into the appli-

cation as shown in Figure 1 (c) to verify the email

Figure 2: Login and Register.

2. Proﬁle

In the proﬁle page, users can view their personal

data such as name, email, address, and so on.

There are also several buttons that can be used for

speciﬁc functions, namely Logout, Change Pass-

word, and Edit Proﬁle. The Logout button is used

to log out of the user account. The Change Pass-

word button is used to move to a page where users

can change their password by entering their cur-

rent password and new password. The Edit Pro-

ﬁle button is used to move to a page where users

can change some of their personal data such as

name, address, and so on. There is also a toggle

to change the language between Indonesian and

English, and a toggle to change the mode between

dark and light

Figure 3: Proﬁle, Change Password, and Edit Proﬁle.

3. Take the Test

This feature can be accessed through the ”Take

the Test” button on the home page which will be

directed to the test taking page. When the user ac-

cesses this feature, the user will be directed to a

page that contains a brief brieﬁng on how to take

the test as shown in Figure 3 (a). After that, the

user can start the test and the application will val-

idate whether the user has taken the test before

or not. If the user has taken the test before, the

user must wait for 90 days before taking the test

again, the application will display how long the

user must wait before taking the test as shown in

Figure 3 (b). If the user has never taken a test or

has passed 90 days after the previous test, the user

will be directed to the test taking page as shown

in Figure 3 (c). In the test taking page, there

are 10 sections where each section the application

will display 2 statements and the user must choose

which statement better describes themselves

Figure 4: Take the Test.

4. Test Result and History

After the user has completed the test, the user

will be directed to the test results page where the

score obtained along with an explanation of the

ICAISD 2023 - International Conference on Advanced Information Scientiﬁc Development

222

score and a radar chart of the dimensions owned

by the user based on the user’s test answers are

displayed. The test result display can be seen in

Figure 4 (a) and (b). Each test taken by the user

will be stored in the database, the user can review

the results of the tests that have been taken on the

test history page as shown in Figure 4 (c). In the

test history, the user can select one of the histo-

ries which will then be redirected back to the test

results page to view the test results in detail.

Figure 5: Test Result and History.

5. Statistic Data

In this page, statistical data of all user members

will be displayed including radar charts of each

dimension and charts of demographic data.

Figure 6: Statistic Data.

From the appearance of the application that has

been developed, an evaluation of UI/UX is carried out

to ﬁnd out whether users feel comfortable and satis-

ﬁed when using the Entrepreneurial Mindfulness ap-

plication. The evaluation was also carried out with

the aim of improving the UI/UX of the application

based on suggestions and criticisms received from

users. The UI/UX evaluation of the Entrepreneurial

Mindfulness application was conducted by distribut-

ing a questionnaire containing 10 questions based on

the Eight Golden Rules by Ben Shneiderman.

From the results of the survey obtained from 31

respondents, data normality testing was carried out

for the distribution of UIUX EM variable data. The

normality test was carried out by estimating the pro-

portion through the Blom formula with the P-P Plot

approach. The P-P Plot approach was chosen because

the number of samples in this study was less than 200

users. The results can be seen in Figure 7.

Figure 7: Normality Test of PP Plot Proportion Estimation

Formula of Variable Blom UIUX EM.

Based on the normality test results, it can be ex-

plained that the normal P-P Plot calculation shows

that the UIUX EM sample data is normal. The data

distribution tends to point to the normal line, and the

data distribution does not have outliers. Meanwhile,

when viewed based on the Detrended Normal P-P Plot

seen in Figure 8, it can be interpreted that the distri-

bution of UIUX EM variable data does not describe

a sine or cosine curve. So it is concluded that all

UIUX EM variable data distributions have a normal

distribution.

Figure 8: Detrended Normal PP Plot Distribution Variable

UIUX EM.

In proving this, the researcher analyzed the data

from the survey results and determined 5 categories

UI/UX Evaluation on Entrepreneurial Mindfulness Mobile Application

223

of UIUX EM, namely strongly disagree, disagree, un-

decided, agree, and strongly agree. The results can be

seen in Table 1 below.

sults.

The data analysis in Table 1 was carried out with

the resulting lower and upper bounds were between

45.9662 and 48.2918. Based on these results, it can

be concluded that Entrepreneurial Mindfulness (EM)

app users tend to be signiﬁcantly interested at α <

0.05.

Figure 9: Results of Classiﬁcation and Regression Trees

(CART method) of each indicator againts the UIUX EM

Variable.

To ﬁnd the indicators of the Eight Golden Rules

of UIUX EM that must be improved, an analysis with

Classiﬁcation and Regression Trees (CART method)

was conducted. From Figure 9, it can be interpreted

that the most dominant in determining the EM ap-

plication is responded by users who tend to agree

with the attractiveness of the application display is

determined by the Support Internal Locus of Control

(CONTROL) indicator. If this indicator is developed,

the EM application user response will increase 6.658

times from the current user response condition. Im-

proving the Support Internal Locus of Control (CON-

TROL) indicator can only be realized through im-

proving the Cater to Universal Usability (UNIVER-

SAL) indicator. Improving this indicator can increase

user response to the Support Internal Locus of Con-

trol (CONTROL) indicator by 1.679 times from the

current condition. Based on the results of the analy-

sis above, there are 6 indicators in the EM application

that must be improved, namely: (1) Strive for Consis-

tency (CONSISTENCY), (2) Offer Informative Feed-

back (INFORMATIVE), (3) Design Dialogs to Yield

Closure (DESIGN), (4) Prevent Errors (PREVENT),

(5) Permit Easy Reversal of Actions (REVERSAL),

and (6) Reduce Short-Term Memory Load (SHORT-

CUT).

Figure 10: Results of Classiﬁcation and Regression Trees

indicator on the UIUX EM Variable.

To ﬁnd items from the Eight Golden Rules

UIUX EM indicator that must be improved, an anal-

ysis with Classiﬁcation and Regression Trees (CART

method) was conducted. The results can be seen in

Figure 10. From Figure 10, it can be interpreted that

the most dominant determines the EM Application re-

sponded by users who tend to agree with the attrac-

tiveness of the application display is determined by

the Ease Reversal of Actions (ACTION) item. If the

item is improved through 1 (one) program interven-

tion, the EM application user response will increase

5.910 times from the current user response condition.

Improving the Ease Reversal of Actions (ACTION)

item can be realized through improving the Clarity

of Application Design Structure (STRUCTURE) item

which is able to increase the response to the Ease

Reversal of Actions (ACTION) item by 2.269 times

from the current condition. Based on the results of

the above analysis, there are 8 items in the EM appli-

cation that must be improved, namely: (1) Suitabil-

ity of Icons in the Application (ICON), (2) Usability

of Localization Feature (LOCALIZATION), (3) Us-

ability of Dark and Light Mode Feature (MODE), (4)

Clarity of the Information Given in the Application

(INFORMATION), (4) Clarity of Application Flow

(FLOW), (5) Clarity of Error Message in the Appli-

cation (MESSAGE), (6) Ease of Reversal of Actions

(ACTION), (7) Convenience of Application Flow and

Design (CONVENIENCE), and (8) Accuracy of the

Button Placement (BUTTON).

Based on the analysis results of the UI/UX evalu-

ation survey of the Entrepreneurial Mindfulness ap-

plication, it can be concluded that users tend to

ICAISD 2023 - International Conference on Advanced Information Scientiﬁc Development

224

agree on the attractiveness of the appearance of the

Entrepreneurial Mindfulness application. However,

there are several indicators and items that need to

be improved and developed to increase user satis-

faction with the appearance and ﬂow of the applica-

tion. Therefore, some improvements and develop-

ments were made to the appearance and ﬂow of the

application which are described as follows:

1. Improve the ﬂow of the application where after

the user ﬁnishes registration, the user immediately

logs into his account so that there is no need to

re-login. The ﬂow of the application after being

improved can be seen in Figure 11.

Figure 11: Update of Registration Flow.

2. Add a short tutorial on how to answer the test by

using animation or pointing to the slider on the

test page to inform users that the slider on the test

page can be moved up and down.

Figure 12: Simple tutorial about how to answer the test.

3. Direct the user to login when the app is ﬁrst

opened, but still provide a button to skip the di-

rective and go straight to the home page

Figure 13: Login page when user just opened the app for

the ﬁrst time.

5 CONCLUSION

Entrepreneurial Mindfulness application is developed

by paying attention to the quality of the appearance

and function of each feature. With a good appearance

and function in the Entrepreneurial Mindfulness ap-

plication can help researchers in introducing the ap-

plication more widely so that the application can be

used in accordance with the purpose of the application

development itself. By always improving the quality

of the application’s appearance, users will be more

satisﬁed and comfortable in using the application and

this will provide more beneﬁts for the development of

the Entrepreneurial Mindfulness application.

Based on the results of the UI/UX evaluation

conducted on the Entrepreneurial Mindfulness appli-

cation, several important aspects can be identiﬁed

for further application development. Entrepreneurial

Mindfulness application as a platform that helps en-

trepreneurs in assessing their level of mindfulness not

only pays attention to the right function, but also

a good appearance and easy-to-understand ﬂow for

users so that users feel comfortable and satisﬁed when

using the application. From the survey results, it was

concluded that the appearance and ﬂow of the appli-

cation were able to provide a fairly good experience to

users. However, there were also some suggestions and

UI/UX Evaluation on Entrepreneurial Mindfulness Mobile Application

225

criticisms from the respondents so that some develop-

ments and improvements were made to improve the

appearance and ﬂow in the application. It is expected

that the Entrepreneurial Mindfulness application can

increase the number of users so that they want to be

proactive in using the pplication to increase their ca-

pacity and competence as entrepreneurs
