Abstract:Computer users have motionless periods of time while performing computer-based tasks. Do these pauses relate to the mental and perceptual actions required to perform tasks? Do users essentially pause while they think, wait to retrieve the next step to perform, or search the location of something on the screen? How do the pauses change as the users gain experience and progress from novice to skilled? To answer these questions, we conducted user studies to investigate the link between the pauses observed in users' interactions with computer-based applications and their skill levels. In this paper, we introduce a set of pause-related attributes that can distinguish among different levels of skills in performing Graphical User Interface (GUI) tasks. We employ machine learning algorithms to build skill classifi ers based on these attributes. These skill classifi ers can be used to create skill-adaptive applications.

“…A movement to a target in pointing tasks consists of a sequence of sub-movements (Keates and Trewin, 2005;Meyer et al, 1988;Hwang et al, 2004). Pauses during the mouse movements can relate to these sub-movements.…”

“…Hwang et al [16] reported that some users with impairments pause the pointer more often and require up to five times more submovements to complete the same task than users without impairments. Wobbrock and Gajos [41] focused on the difficulty that people with motion impairments have in positioning the mouse pointer within a confined area to execute a click command.…”

“…A comparison of the mouse-pointer trajectories of users with and without movement impairments revealed that some users with impairments pause the pointer more often and require up to five times more submovements to complete the same task than users without impairments [51]. Wobbrock and Gajos [111] stressed the difficulty that people with motion impairments have in positioning the mouse pointer within a confined area to execute a click command.…”
