“…Georgiev [6] investigated reading speeds on mobile devices compared to reading text on a PC screen and on paper using different methods for text presentation, including RSVP. Top reading speeds were achieved on computer screens with a font size of 14pt and on paper.…”

Technology has introduced multimedia to tailor information more broadly to our various senses, but by no means has the ability to consume information through reading lost its importance. To cope with the ever-growing amount of textual information to consume, different techniques have been proposed to increase reading efficiency: rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) has been suggested to increase reading speed by effectively reducing the number of eye movements. Further, moving a pen, finger or the entire hand across text is a common technique among speed readers to help guide eye movements. We adopted these techniques for electronic devices by introducing stimuli on text that guide users' eye movements. In a series of two user studies we sped up users' reading speed to 150% of their normal rate and evaluated effects on text comprehension, mental load, eye movements and subjective perception. Results show that reading speed can be effectively increased by using such stimuli while keeping comprehension rates nearly stable. We observed initial strain on mental load which significantly decreased after a short while. Subjective feedback conveys that kinetic stimuli are better suited for long, complex text on larger displays, whereas RSVP was preferred for short text on small displays.

“…Some of the more recent studies have found no difference between screen sizes and paper. For example, [7] compared the speed of reading between paper, a computer, and a mobile device to see if there was a difference between the three. They tested for an interaction between font size and the type of screen size.…”

The construct of mental models has been a useful tool for training and learning. Many instructors ask students to draw how something works or their understanding of the subject. While this gives the instructor useful feedback, comparing their own understanding to the students understanding. There are many variations in understanding that are distinct yet correct. The Structure, Behavior and Function framework (SBF, Hmelo-Silver and Pfeffer, 2004) successfully described how mental models change at different levels of learning. However, measuring mental models can present an analysis challenge. This study outlines another way to apply the SBF framework to quantify a person’s mental model of a common task: posting a message to a social network. Was a person's mental model of this task universal? Did participants understand what happened to their data? Participants in this study were university students from three different regions of the United States who were familiar with social media. Participants described in words, pictures, or a diagram of what happens to a comment after it is entered on a social media site. Results demonstrate the lack of a universal mental model amongst participants which suggests a poverty in how data is shared in social media. The analysis methodology proved useful when confronted with the three data types: words, pictures, or a diagram in a single data set.

“…O valor de wm é fixo e igual a 200. O valor médio de 200 palavras por minuto (200wpm) foi escolhido com base em diversos valores apresentados por trabalhos que investigam a velocidade de leitura em dispositivos móveis [Biedert et al, 2012;Georgiev, 2012;Öquist e Lundin, 2007;Schildbach e Rukzio, 2010]. Já o tempo de 3 segundos foi escolhido para que o texto fique visível por um tempo superior ao tempo de leitura.…”
