| Abstract;The amount of information on the network is constantly increasing. However, human capacity of information processing is limited, so that people expect to have some support tools to handle such growing size of information over the Internet. This study aims to find the technology that helps people to get suitable information efficiently when they face a big number of search results on a web site search engine. In this paper, we focus on the use of indexes as a cue to select appropriate information. We conducted two experiments to understand about the validity of index usage and the effect of presentation style on subjects' performance. The result of experiments shows that both text-based and image-based indexes work without any significant differences. We also found that, in some sorts of tasks, the number of indexes in a scene controls on selection performances. (author abst.) |
