the empirical literature. Ergonomics, 35(10), 1297-1326.
Abstract: The advent of widespread computer use in general and increasing developments in the
domain of hypertext in particular have increased awareness of the issue of reading
electronic text. To date the literature has been dominated by reference to work on
overcoming speed deficits resulting from poor image quality but an emerging literature
reveals a more complex set of variables at work. The present review considers the
differences between the media in terms of outcomes and processes of reading and
concludes that single variable explanations are insufficient to capture the range of issues
involved in reading from screens.
