Copious Electronic Text on Small Screen Interfaces: A New Method of Displaying Emails on Cell Phones
William Fitzpatrick, Shawn M. Doherty · Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting · 2004
Text information was presented to participants in a cell-phone sized display through a modified form of rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) to investigate the effectiveness of comprehension of information on small displays. Thirty participants were exposed to combinations of three presentation speeds and three sets of line quantities. Results indicated that participants had optimal comprehension of text in 2-line or 4-line presentation of information at baseline reading speed.
