The legibility of displayed letters depends upon their size, or more accurately, their subtended visual angle at any viewing distance. Current design standards recommend letter heights in the range from 0.003 to 0.007 rad (10 to 24 mill of arc) for g

From a survey of 77 people involved in information system development, it is estimated that on average more than 30 percent of operational software is devoted to the user-system interface (USI). Improvements are needed in early requirements definitio

Testing word associations, as an extension of simple password entry, may be a practical means of verifying the identity of individual computer users. If each user specifies his/her own cue-response associations, then responses will be easy to remembe

In contrast with earlier research showing Lansdell numerals superior in legibility to conventional number shapes during brief exposure of single digits, the present study found that Lansdell numerals are read at least 15% more slowly than Mackworth o
