通过两个双任务实验，探讨了页面布局对心理负荷的影响。先前的研究表明，在纸上呈现文本文档比在计算机屏幕上显示文本文档更可取（例如，Mayes，D. K.，西姆斯，V.K.，& Koonce，J. M.（2001年）的第10页。视屏显示终端和纸质阅读的理解和工作量差异。International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics，28（6），367-378; Wastlund，E.，Reinikka，H.，Norlander，T.，和阿彻，T.（2005年）。VDT和论文展示对信息消费和生产的影响：心理和生理因素。Computers in Human Behavior，21，377-394）。然而，批评者提倡两种介质之间的材料的不适当匹配作为混淆变量，例如（Noyes，J.M.，&加兰，K. J.（2003年）。VDT与纸质文本：回复Mayes、西姆斯和Koonce。International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics，31（6），411-423）。本研究的重点一直是采取这样一个变量，页面布局，然后隔离和复制它，以评估其对用户性能的影响。本实验的结果表明，优化页面布局的浏览减少心理负荷。这不仅证实了在进行纸与计算机比较时匹配呈现模式的所有方面的重要性，而且还表明，通过创建具有适合于它们要在其上呈现的屏幕的页面布局的文档，可以促进从计算机屏幕的阅读。
In two dual-task experiments, the effects of page layout on mental workload were explored. Previous studies indicate that it is preferable to present a text document on paper than to display it on a computer screen (e.g. Mayes, D. K., Sims, V. K., & Koonce, J. M. (2001). Comprehension and workload differences for VDT and paper-based reading. International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics, 28(6), 367–378; Wastlund, E., Reinikka, H., Norlander, T., & Archer, T. (2005). Effects of VDT and paper presentation on consumption and production of information: Psychological and physiological factors. Computers in Human Behavior, 21, 377–394). However, critics have advocated improper matching of the materials between the two media as a confounding variable e.g. (Noyes, J. M., & Garland, K. J. (2003). VDT versus paper-based text: reply to Mayes, Sims and Koonce. International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics, 31(6), 411–423). The focus of the present study has been to take one such variable, page layout, and then isolate and replicate it onscreen in order to assess its affect on user performance. The results of the present experiments showed that optimizing the page layout for onscreen viewing decreased mental workload. This not only confirms the importance of matching all aspects of the presentational modes in doing paper vs. computer comparisons, but also shows that reading from a computer screen can be facilitated by creating documents with a page layout that is adapted to the screen which they are intended to be presented on.
