The one-stroke method is the fastest to use and therefore prefered by subects, but the high npvi value indicate cognitive difficulty

The MultiTap method is easy to use and has the low est npvi value indicating cognitive

  • ease. But is is slow er

to use than one-stroke

Useful measure measure for for comparing various comparing various text entry strategies text entry strategies

  • Gives

Gives an an indication of cognitive indication of cognitive difficulty difficulty

  • Can

Can be be applied directly applied directly to to keystroke keystroke logs logs, independent , independent of strategy

  • f strategy
  • No

No normalisation normalisation or

  • Easy

Easy to to compute compute

  • Roboust

Roboust to to outliers

  • utliers
  • Should

Should not be not be used exclusively used exclusively, , but but in in conjunction w ith other quantities conjunction w ith other quantities
