Navigation systems nowadays have become ubiquitous, with many users relaying on them to find on-the-fly directions to new locations. With current advances in technology, modern navigation systems augment navigation directions with new information ranging from traffic, tolls, accidents and any other issue that could lead to delays in a given route, to social network aspects such as schedule, fri...

This study explores the emerging phenomenon of collaborative online shopping by comparing three navigation support designs: separate navigation with location cue, split screen navigation, and tightly-bonded shared navigation. The impacts of the three navigation support designs on collaborative customers’ actual and perceived shared understanding were investigated in a laboratory experiment. The...

A model of online reading engagement is outlined. This model proposes that online reading engagement predicts dedication in digital reading. Dedication in digital reading according to the model is reflected in task-adaptive navigation, and task-adaptive navigation predicts digital reading performance over and above print reading skill. Information engagement is assumed to positively predict tas...
