“…To measure the usefulness of our two-level scrollbar interfaces, we ran a small preliminary study and a full study to compare them against a standard (unaugmented) scrollbar and the single-level icon scrollbar seen in previous work [82]. Our goal was to answer the following questions:…”

“…The second study used the same method as Study 1, but with some adjustments: First, the number of conditions decreased to four as we removed the Standard scrollbar. Second, the length of the long document was also altered from 1470 pages to 900, to make the number of pages and blocks even for all of the designs (30 blocks, each with 30 pages); 900 pages is still considerably larger than the 42-page document used in earlier work [82]. Third, the number of target stimuli was increased to six pages and each page of these pages were visited twice in the training phase.…”
