Effects of Typeface and Font Size on Legibility for Children
Eighty children (kindergarten through 4th grade) performed discrimination and identification tasks for tachistoscopically-presented letter pairs. Letter pairs manipulated font (Times New Roman, Arial), point size (12and 18-point) and letter-pair discrimination difficulty (easy, medium, and hard). Higher percent correct scores occurred for the Arial font and 18-pt size, and performance was bette...
متن کاملExamining Perceptions of Online Text Size and Typeface Legibility for Older Males and Females
This study examined the perceived font legibility, ease of reading, and font sharpness, as well as perceptions of font attractiveness, fun/personality, and general preference of two serif (Times New Roman and Georgia) and sans serif (Arial and Verdana) fonts at 12and 14-point sizes on a computer by older adults (mean age of 70). The results revealed that participants perceived the 14-point size...
متن کاملThe effects of Chinese typeface design, stroke weight, and contrast polarity on glance based legibility
Modern interfaces increasingly rely on screens filled with digital text to display information to users. Previous research has shown that even relatively subtle differences in the design of the on-screen typeface can influence to-device glance time in a measurable and meaningful way (Reimer et al., 2014). Here we outline a methodology for rapidly and flexibly investigating the legibility of typ...

متن کاملUtilising psychophysical techniques to investigate the effects of age, typeface design, size and display polarity on glance legibility
Psychophysical research on text legibility has historically investigated factors such as size, colour and contrast, but there has been relatively little direct empirical evaluation of typographic design itself, particularly in the emerging context of glance reading. In the present study, participants performed a lexical decision task controlled by an adaptive staircase method. Two typefaces, a ...
