A comparison of input devices in element pointing and dragging tasks
Open accessAbstract
An experiment is described comparing three devices (a mouse, a trackball, and a stylus with tablet) in the performance of pointing and dragging tasks.During pointing, movement times were shorter and error rates were lower than during dragging.It is shown that Fitts' law can model both tasks, and that within devices the index of performance is higher when pointing than when dragging.Device differences also appeared.The stylus displayed a higher rate of information pmeessing than the mouse during pointing but not during dragging.The trackball ranked third for both tasks,

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
