Abstract(in English) The purpose of this study is to clarity quantitatively the difference of thinking faculty between two conditions using softcopy and using hardcopy. We have examined two working conditions-display medium in horizontal state and vertical state-for both medium of LCD as a softcopy and printing paper as a hardcopy. A series of tests have been carried out by measuring calculation speed and correct answer rate to simple calculation tasks using five members of testees. The results have shown clear differences in the correct answer rate. The speed of calculations in vertical condition are faster than that of horizontal condition. In addition, in horizontal states, the speed is faster when using hardcopy than using LCD, while they are almost the same in vertical state. It is suggested that the advantage of hardcopy originates in its horizontal working condition.
