Abstract(in English) In order to make electronic book viewers more accessible for people with motor disabilities, the number of keys used for operation has to be reduced as much as possible, considering the use of operating switch. Then, operationality of a viewer was validated in terms of operation time, the number of operations, the number of error operations and usability in cases with 4 different effective combinations of direction keys, {↑,↓,←,→}, used to move the cursor within the region of menu bar. Consequently, the reduction of the keys unavoidably increased the number of operations and reduced overall usability, as expected, while it never affected operationality of each key input in terms of operation time as well as the number of error operations.
