It mainly evaluates the usability of TBDB and then proposes the improvement of the TBDB. This study invites 15 research participants, which are master students from the department of history. This study attempts to understand their experiences in using history-related database, hoping to design database more suitable for their needs and promote the application and implementation of digital humanities in the field of historical research. This study adopts the think-aloud research method for usability evaluation. The research participants verbally described their thoughts and problems in the process of usability evaluation. The main findings on the participants’ experiences in using history-related databases are as follows: (1) master students of historic study use history-related databases for their research and a majority of them use history-related databases several time a week; (2) the most commonly used database for history master students is the Chinese literature of the Central Research Institute; (3) when using databases, they pay most attention to the richness of the query categories. The main findings on the usability evaluation of TBDB are as follows: (1)the average rating of TBDB using Likert 5-point scale is 3.2, a scale between fair and good; (2) the function of TBDB mostly favored by the research participants and considered to be usable in their study is the social network analysis; (3) it is necessary for TBDB to make improvement in the aspects of query, analysis, output, overall layout design, and functions. According to the research results, research suggestions are proposed: TBDB needs to firstly improve the layout design, followed by the problem that the network diagram is not easy to operate, and then the meaning of the functional design is appropriate to the user's needs.數位人文臺灣歷史人物傳記資料庫介面設計可用性評估放聲思考法Digital HumanitiesTaiwan Biographical DatabaseInterface DesignUsability EvaluationThink Aloud
