Popis: In Japan, many people are still not familiar with reading documents digitally, although digital books have been widely promoted recently. To disclose the obstacles preventing digital reading, a fundamental experiment investigating the difference in information-transmission efficiency between analog and digital media was performed. In this investigation, the participants were asked to read documents in two different forms, in a printed form (analog media) and a displayed form (digital media). In addition to the analog and digital comparison, the experiment analyzed another aspect: the differences among young, middle-aged, and senior generations. Herein, the results of the investigation and the implications of the experiment results were discussed.
