This article presents an overview of the main techniques for data collection in User Experience (UX) research in Information Science. The study consists of exploratory, descriptive and qualitative research, based on national and international publications on data collection methods in UX research. The main data collection techniques used in UX research were identified and analyzed. characteristics, advantages and challenges. The results highlight data collection techniques such os interviews, observation, usability questionnaires and online surveys, among others. It is concluded that the data collection method in UX research should be based on the specific needs of the study and the the specific needs of the study and the characteristics of the users and context of use. Each method has its advantages and challenges, and combining of different data collection techniques can provide more comprehensive insights into the user experience.
