Throughput (TP) is a global measure of input device efficiency but provides little information about user's movement behavior when interacting with a device. Psychomotor models of movement provide a framework from which to develop new “during” movement variables that can be used to explain why efficiency differences occur. Data from a previous study examining the usability of a mouse, trackball and RollerMouse™ was re-examined using TP and the kinematic variables peak velocity of the primary movement (PV) and proportion of total distance traveled in primary phase (%PMD). Partial correlation analysis found %PMD and PV to be significantly related to TP and negatively related with each other, suggesting a “speed/accuracy” tradeoff. Further analysis confirmed the variables were useful in discriminating between devices and found that the most efficient device was less constrained by the “speed/accuracy” tradeoff. It was concluded that kinematic variables offer a useful way of understanding efficiency differences between devices.

Four input devices were compared in a data entry task by speed and accuracy scores. The input devices were: Linus pen (a handwriting recognition system), optical mouse, cursor keys, and alphabetic keys on a keyboard. Data entry consisted of twenty 5-letter words and 100 single letters. Two different screen designs (QWERTY and ALPHA) were used for the mouse and cursor keys conditions. Results showed the keyboard to be fastest and the cursor keys to be slowest in data entry. The mouse and Linus pen had comparable latency scores. Overall, five-letter words were entered faster than five single letters. Latency decreased over trials, and ALPHA conditions required more time than QWERTY conditions. The Linus pen was the least accurate input device. The cursor QWERTY condition produced the highest accuracy scores for letter entry while the keyboard produced the highest accuracy scores for word entry.
