Abstract(in English) In previous study, we examined to let the participants input alphabet of four characters and recorded performance time, tap interval and the number of taps, and we suggested that the optimal number of buttons (that performance time is minimum) is 10. In addition, the optimal number of buttons which was given from performance time accorded with that one which was estimated multiple regression from tap interval and the number of taps. The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of increasing the necessary number of letters to input on the optimal number of buttons. As a result, it is suggested that the optimal number of buttons increases with increasing the input letters.
