| Abstract(in English) | We propose a new Japanese electronic format with phrase-based line breaking for tablet computer to improve reading speed. It has been reported that optimal viewing position (OVP) phenomenon is observed in Japanese text, and OVPs correspond to positions of Japanese phrases. The new format prohibits splitting of a phrase and breaks a line between phrases isolated by morphological analysis. Reading speeds were consistently faster for the new formats compared to the conventional formats. The enhancement of reading speed in the new format seems to be related to optimizations of eye movements in a return sweep movement of a line, and substitutions of vertical scrolling of a single line for a single horizontal saccade. |
