• Understanding Design Considerations for Adaptive User Interfaces for Accessible Pointing with Older and Younger Adults

  Aqueasha Martin-Hammond, Abdullah Ali, Catherine Hornback, Amy K. Hurst · 2015 · Proceedings of the 12th International Web for All Conference (W4A)

  This paper explores user preferences for adaptive user interfaces (AUIs) that detect and accommodate pointing difficulties when using a mouse, touchpad, or touchscreen to interact with the web. The researchers conducted participatory design sessions with 38 participants — 8…

• Understanding Pointing Problems in Real World Computing Environments

  Amy Hurst, Jennifer Mankoff, Scott E. Hudson · 2008 · Proceedings of the 10th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility (Assets '08)

  This paper develops techniques for collecting and analysing pointing performance data during real-world computer use, rather than solely in laboratory settings, to understand how pointing behaviour varies over time for individuals with motor impairments. Two computers were…

• A Study of Input Device Manipulation Difficulties

  Shari Trewin · 1996 · Proceedings of the Second Annual ACM Conference on Assistive Technologies (Assets '96)

  This paper from the University of Edinburgh describes a pilot study designed to gather detailed, quantified data about physical input errors made by people with motor disabilities when using standard keyboards and mice. The author identifies a significant gap: despite widespread…
