与人机交互各个方面相关的研究对于有效的界面系统和输入设备的设计和实现变得越来越重要。随着人机界面变得更加直接,解释这种交互的模型的分析和应用越来越受到研究人员的关注。在这方面,与计算机输入设备相关的人类运动的速度和准确性通常由菲茨定律建模。然而,大多数此类分析并未将接近角度视为一个因素。本研究调查了使用鼠标选择计算机显示屏上呈现的图标状目标时,接近角、目标大小和到目标的距离对移动时间的交互影响。接近角度、目标大小和目标距离显着影响移动时间。尽管与其他研究相比,基于菲茨定律线性模型的全局 R(2) 较低,但残差分析表明,线性模型的预测有效性与所研究的其他变量相互作用。版权所有 (C) 1996 爱思唯尔科学有限公司
Research related to various aspects of human-computer interactions has become increasingly important to the design and implementation of effective interface systems and input devices. As the man-machine interface has become more direct, the analysis and application of models to account for this interaction have received increasing attention by investigators. In that regard, the speed and accuracy of human motor movements associated with computer input devices have often been modeled by Fitts' law. Most such analyses, however, have not considered the angle of approach as a factor. The present study investigated the interactive effects on movement time of the angle of approach, the size of the target, and the distance to the target for the use of a mouse to select icon-like targets presented on a computer's display screen. Angle of approach, target size, and target distance significantly affected movement time. Although the global R(2) based on a Fitts' law linear model was low in comparison with other studies, an analysis of the residuals showed that the linear model's effectiveness in prediction interacted with the other variables under investigation.
