In his book <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/203968.The_Social_Animal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Social Animal<\/span><\/i><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, psychologist Eliot Aronson explains that when performing a task, a person is likely to justify the action in their head. This can easily lead into a self-fulfilling prophecy of the user enjoying any given site that they invest even a small amount of time into.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But interactivity does not always need to be about interactions. Emotionally engaging content like videos or poignant visuals can achieve the same results. In this case, simply watching and\/or reflecting on the content is the user\u2019s role in the interaction. This experience is just as immersive \u2014 as anyone who\u2019s ever seen a movie can tell you \u2014 and forms the same connection.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-31064\" title=\"1 21\" src=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/1_21-700x280.png\" alt=\"1 21\" width=\"700\" height=\"280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/1_21-700x280.png 700w, https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/1_21.png 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a more detailed analysis of how to design interactivity and its best practices, as well as the techniques behind 9 other modern design trends, check out the free e-book <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/ebooks\/design-trends-2020\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Design Trends 2020<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

The reason for this? They\u2019re easy to implement across a wide range of industries and don\u2019t create too much distraction. You can try the simple hover states like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/oceanschool.nfb.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ocean School<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or go for a more animated one like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.petenottage.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pete Nottage<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scrolling interactions are another popular element because they\u2019re also easy to implement and they create motion without using animation. You can use the parallax effect like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cyclemon.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cyclemon<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or tell a story like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.akita.co.uk\/movement-of-data\/#start\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Akita<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. To improve user experience, these interactive websites used more than interactive features and micro-interactions. They used fun <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.uxpin.com\/studio\/blog\/choose-color-pallete\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">color schemes<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> like <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make Your Money Matter<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.variable-fonts.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fontsmith<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to evoke emotions and create an immersive effect.
