“…There was a ceiling effect; hence, all distributions were left skewed. It is often observed that satisfaction ratings are not normally distributed (see, e.g., [23,24]). Therefore, nonparametric Mann-Whitney U tests (one-tailed) were used for the statistical analysis of the rating data.…”

If an interactive form in the worldwide web requires users to select multiple answers from a given list, this can be implemented in several ways. This paper discusses an empirical study with n = 106 participants, where two interface elements for choosing multiple answers (checkboxes and list boxes) were compared. Results showed that participants chose the same amount of options in both conditions but were faster and more satisfied using checkboxes. The time differences disappeared after several trials, revealing a learning effect for the list box element. As a conclusion, it can be recommended that website developers and online researchers should use checkboxes instead of list boxes for their online forms and questionnaires to enhance usability and user satisfaction-at least for a smaller number of options.

“…Leuthold et al (Leuthold et al, 2008) designed enhanced text user interfaces for blind Internet users. Starting from the guidelines of web content accessibility guidelines (WCAG), they proposed enhanced text user interface (ETI) helping blind users in spending less time to complete tasks, making fewer mistakes and expressing greater satisfaction when surfing the website.…”

ICEIS 2016 received 257 paper submissions from 42 countries in all continents, which makes it one of the largest conferences in the World in the area of Information Systems, thus demonstrating the success and global dimension of this conference. From these, 42 papers were selected for publication and presentation at the Conference as full papers. These numbers, leading to a full-paper acceptance ratio of 16%, show the intention of preserving a high quality forum for this conference, a quality that we intend to maintain in the future, for the next editions of this conference.The high number and high quality of the received papers imposed difficult choices in the selection process. To evaluate each submission, a double blind paper review was performed by the Program Committee, whose members are highly qualified researchers in ICEIS topic areas.All presented papers will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library and will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP, EI (Elsevier Index) and Scopus.Additionally, a short list of presented papers will be selected to be expanded into a forthcoming book of ICEIS 2016 Selected Papers to be published by Springer in the LNBIP Series.The technical program of the conference included a panel and 4 invited talks delivered by internationally distinguished speakers, namely: Claudia Loebbecke (University of Cologne, Germany), Sergio Gusmeroli (TXT e-solutions SPA, Italy), Wil Van Der Aalst (Technische Universiteit Eindhoven, Netherlands) and Jan Vom Brocke (University of Liechtenstein, Liechtenstein). Their participation positively contributes to reinforce the overall quality of the Conference and to provide a deeper understanding of the fields addressed by the conference.Moreover, ICEIS 2016 had a Doctoral Consortium on Enterprise Information Systems and 1 tutorial. We are thankful to the Conference Co-chairs (Olivier Camp and José Cordeiro) and Program Co-chairs (Slimane Hammoudi, Leszek Maciaszek and Michele M. Missikoff) for their dedication and hard work in organizing these events.We sincerely thank all the authors for their submissions and participation in ICEIS 2016. Furthermore, we would like to thank all the members of the program committee and reviewers, who helped us with their expertise, dedication and time. We would also like to thank the invited speakers for their excellent contribution in sharing their knowledge and vision and the workshop/special session chairs whose collaboration with ICEIS 2015 was much appreciated. Finally, we gratefully acknowledge the professional support of the ICEIS 2016 team for all organizational processes. XIIIWe hope that all colleagues find this a fruitful and inspiring conference. We hope to contribute to the development of the Enterprise Information Systems community and look forward to having additional research results presented at the next edition of ICEIS, details of which are available at http://www.iceis.org.

“…A lot of the semantic information is lost while linearizing the content. As observed in [21], it is difficult to form a proper mental model of the navigation space with the linearized content.…”

“…If a blind person can gain a mental model of the web page and its navigation structure, he will be able to navigate and find information faster and more efficient way. In [21] it is mentioned that having a mental model about the navigation space is necessary to perform successful navigation. Also [24] mentions that people having a mature mental model can perform better in web interaction and search compared to people having immature mental models.…”

In this thesis accessibility problems with websites for vision-impaired persons are discussed in detail. General accessibility problems and those specific to e-commerce websites,especially on-line shopping websites are discussed. Accessibility problems are examined from the perspective of a screen reader user. As a solution to the accessibility problems identified, the WCAG 2.0 guidelines are reviewed and new changes are proposed to improve the existing guidelines. Enhanced solutions using tactile media capable of providing a better web browsing experience for vision-impaired persons are also discussed.
