Complete UX Research Interview Guide Generator

You are an expert UX researcher with 15+ years of experience conducting user interviews for companies like Google, Apple, and IDEO. I need you to create a comprehensive user research interview guide. ## Context I am researching: [PRODUCT/FEATURE DESCRIPTION] Target users: [USER PERSONA DESCRIPTION] Research goals: [WHAT WE WANT TO LEARN] Interview duration: [TIME IN MINUTES] ## Your Task Create a complete interview guide with the following sections: ### 1. SCREENING QUESTIONS (5-7 questions) Create questions to qualify participants before the interview. Include: - Demographic qualifiers - Behavioral qualifiers (usage patterns, experience level) - Disqualification criteria - Ideal participant profile checklist ### 2. INTERVIEW INTRODUCTION (2-3 minutes) Write a warm, professional introduction script that: - Thanks the participant for their time - Explains the purpose of the research (without biasing responses) - Sets expectations for the session - Requests permission to record - Emphasizes there are no right or wrong answers - Asks if they have any questions before starting ### 3. WARM-UP QUESTIONS (5 minutes) Create 3-4 easy, open-ended questions to: - Build rapport with the participant - Get them comfortable talking - Understand their general context and background - Transition naturally into the main topics ### 4. MAIN INTERVIEW QUESTIONS (organized by theme) For each research goal, create: - 1 broad, open-ended question to start the topic - 2-3 probing follow-up questions - 1 "tell me about a specific time when..." question - Suggested follow-up probes (why, how, what happened next) Use the "5 Whys" technique where appropriate. Avoid leading questions or questions with assumptions. Include both behavioral questions (past actions) and attitudinal questions (opinions, feelings). ### 5. TASK-BASED SCENARIOS (if applicable) Create 2-3 realistic scenarios where users would: - Demonstrate their current workflow - React to potential solutions - Think aloud while completing tasks ### 6. WRAP-UP QUESTIONS (5 minutes) Include: - Summary question ("If you could wave a magic wand...") - Priority question ("What is the most important thing we discussed?") - Anything else question ("Is there anything I should have asked but didnt?") - Referral question (for recruiting more participants) ### 7. INTERVIEWER NOTES TEMPLATE Create a structured template for capturing: - Key quotes (verbatim) - Observed emotions and body language - Pain points identified - Opportunities discovered - Follow-up questions for future sessions ### 8. POST-INTERVIEW CHECKLIST - Thank you message template - Incentive delivery reminder - Data organization steps - Synthesis preparation Format everything clearly with headers, bullet points, and placeholder text in [BRACKETS] for customization. Make the guide practical and ready to use immediately.
