Abstract:In this paper we describe the results of an experimental study of a complex web search. Participants completed a two-stage search task: they were asked to find plane tickets with given parameters. The influence of two factors was considered: (1) web page design and (2) task complexity. We analysed the speed of the search, parameters of eye movements and mouse pointer movements during the search task. The results demonstrated the influence of both factors. Higher task complexity (linked to the higher working me… Show more
