Kano, Akiyo (2008): MECE Method For Categorising Typing Errors. In: Proceedings of the HCI08 Conference on People and Computers XXII 2008. pp. 249-250. Available online

“This research aims to create an MECE (Mutually Exclusive, Collectively Exhaustive) categorisation method for typing errors. The research is grounded in theory by gathering typing error types found in both HCI and psychology literature. Empirical studies gathering typing errors from children are used to validate these error types. It is hoped that at a later date, this categorisation method can be used to detect dyslexia in children by inspecting their typing errors.”

Kano, Akiyo, Read, Janet C., Dix, Alan J. and MacKenzie, I. Scott (2007): ExpECT: An Expanded Error Categorisation Method for Text Input. In: Proceedings of the HCI07 Conference on People and Computers XXI 2007. p. 15. Available online

“This paper describes an empirical study on typing errors made by children during a text copy exercise. The literature on text input errors is first examined, focussing on studies of errors that occur during keyboard typing. A study of errors made by children during typing is described and the results from this study are analysed using visual inspection and already published error categorisation methods. These methods are compared with respect to the types and number of errors categorised and uncategorised. We identify and define new kinds of typing errors and use these, together with previously defined error types, to outline an expanded and more detailed method (ExpECT) for the classification of typing errors. ExpECT is compared with the previously examined categorisation methods and is shown to be a more thorough and broader method for the analysis of typing errors.”

Kano, Akiyo, Read, Janet C. and Dix, Alan J. (2006): Children's phrase set for text input method evaluations. In: Proceedings of the Fourth Nordic Conference on Human-Computer Interaction 2006. pp. 449-452. Available online

“This paper investigates the suitability of current phrase sets available in HCI for use with children in text entry experiments. It first examines the use of phrase sets within text input method evaluation, and suggests several reasons why the currently available phrase sets may not be suitable for use with children. A new phrase set, containing 500 phrases which have been taken from children's books, is presented. A study that compared the adult focused phrase set with the new children's phrase set is described. This study concludes that the new phrase set is suitable for use with children and, given that results with the two phrase sets were similar, the study adds validity to the existing adult phrase set.”
