Vail, Rachel E. (1989): A Pilot Study of Navigational Aids' Impact on the Usability of Hierarchical and Hypertext Databases. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 33rd Annual Meeting 1989. pp. 408-412.

“This pilot study investigated the relative effectiveness of various navigational aids for navigating through both hierarchical and hypertext database structures. Previous research has suggested that subjects perform more efficiently when using a spatial map of hierarchical structure. Similar data are not available for hypertext structures. The results of the present pilot study suggest that more in-depth investigation is required to judge the relative merits of the various aids for differing database structures.”
