Research on Efficiency of Visual Search of Users About Different Forms of Prompts of Text Entry Fields

This research selects three typical kinds of labels as the research objects, including static label, focus label and the input label. 30 participants are selected randomly and they are required to finish the pre-established task. The RED desktop eye tracker in iView X series is used to record users’ eye movement data. After the test, the eye movement data including focus path, the number of fixation, average fixation times, saccades distance as well as regressive eye movement times are analyzed by using the BeGaze software. The result of this research showed: In terms of efficiency, inputting label is superior to the focusing label, and efficiency of participants under static label is relatively lower than other two types.
