PURPOSE This study aims to investigate the possible effects of computer monitor-emitted radiation on the oxidant/antioxidant balance in corneal and lens tissues and to observe any protective effects of vitamin C (vit C). METHODS Four groups (PC monitor, PC monitor plus vitamin C, vitamin C, and control) each consisting of ten Wistar rats were studied. The study lasted for three weeks. Vitamin...

This paper presents a novel interaction technique for tabletop computer displays. When using a direct input device such as a stylus, reaching objects on the far side of a table is difficult. While remote pointing has been investigated for large wall displays, there has been no similar research into reaching distant objects on tabletop displays. Augmenting a stylus to allow remote pointing may f...

Three studies investigated how subliminally primed thoughts of an agent prior to action can aVect ascriptions of authorship for that action. Participants competed against a computer program to remove words from a computer screen. Participants reported greater feelings of authorship when primed with Wrst person singular pronouns, and lower feelings of authorship when primed with “computer.” We a...

Electronic screens on laptop and tablet computers are being used for reading text, often while multitasking. Two experimental studies with college students explored the effect of medium and opportunities to multitask on reading (Study 1) and report writing (Study 2). In study 1, participants (N = 120) read an easy and difficult passage on paper, a laptop, or tablet, while either multitasking or...

This experiment explores whether the size of human pupil dilation is a measure that can discriminate between easier and harder intellectual tasks undertaken by the participant when information is displayed on a computer monitor. While it has been previously found that a participant’s pupil dilation will be larger during harder intellectual tasks, these experiments have not generally been conduc...

Motor cortex has been found to play a crucial role in processing the semantics of spoken and written action-related language as well as in early speech perception. One possibility is that the motor system is always involved in perception and cognition, picking up any available motor information in the environment. If this is true we should see increased corticospinal excitability when subjects ...
