Column chart
Self-reported vs verified task completion
What participants said about their own success, against what they actually did

Compares self-reported and verified task completion rates from a MeasuringU analysis of four unmoderated competitive benchmark studies: an average of 93% self-reported against 33% verified, with the lowest and highest rates for each. For UX researchers deciding how to count success in an unmoderated usability test. Koji puts a verdict from the screen recording next to the button each participant pressed, so the gap shows up in the results.
