由于持续的可访问性问题，盲人网络用户的网络浏览效率低下，但这些问题的程度及其从用户的角度来看的实际影响尚未得到充分研究。我们进行了一项现场研究，以调查网络用户所经历的网络的可访问性。这项远程研究使用了一个先进的网络代理，利用AJAX技术来记录用户在访问的网页上查看的页面和执行的操作。我们的研究是在一周的时间内远程进行的，我们的参与者使用了他们已经习惯的辅助技术和软件，并且已经根据偏好进行了配置。这些优势使我们能够汇总许多用户的观察，并探索我们的盲人参与者所采用的实际影响和应对策略。我们的研究反映了从网络用户的角度来看，网络可访问性和描述盲人和视力正常的网络用户的浏览行为的定量差异。
Web browsing is inefficient for blind web users because of persistent accessibility problems, but the extent of these problems and their practical effects from the perspective of the user has not been sufficiently examined. We conducted a study in situ to investigate the accessibility of the web as experienced by web users. This remote study used an advanced web proxy that leverages AJAX technology to record both the pages viewed and the actions taken by users on the web pages that they visited. Our study was conducted remotely over the period of one week, and our participants used the assistive technology and software to which they were already accustomed and had already configured according to preference. These advantages allowed us to aggregate observations of many users and to explore the practical effects on and coping strategies employed by our blind participants. Our study reflects web accessibility from the perspective of web users and describes quantitative differences in the browsing behavior of blind and sighted web users.
