Computer Peripherals
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Computer Peripherals'Various units or machines that operate in combination or in conjunction with a computer but are not physically part of it. Peripheral devices typically display computer data, store data from the computer and return the data to the computer on demand, prepare data for human use, or acquire data from a source and convert it to a form usable by a computer.

Selection-based virtual keyboard prototypes and data collection application.
30 Jul 2009 
An emerging area of research in engineering psychology is the evaluation of text entry for mobile devices using a small number of keys for the control of cursor direction and character selection from a matrix of characters (i.e., selection-based ... Read more...
Exploring workload and attention measurements with uLog mouse data.
30 Jul 2009 User-system interactions (e.g., mouse clicks and movements) can be logged with the uLog computer program. A Web-based study with 20 participants was conducted to investigate the feasibility of using uLog data as an indicator of workload and ... Read more...
Potentially problematic postures during work site keyboard use.
29 Jun 2009 OBJECTIVE: We described the frequency and distribution of keyboard users' potentially risky postural behaviors. METHOD: Forty-three participants' keyboard postural behaviors were rated with the Keyboard-Personal Computer Style instrument (Baker & ... Read more...
