Abstract:
Reading with Rapid Serial Visual Presentation (RSVP) has shown promise for optimizing screen space and
increasing reading speed without compromising comprehension. Given the wide use of small-screen
devices, the present study compared RSVP and traditional reading on three types of reading
comprehension, reading speed, and subjective measures on a smart watch. Results confirm previous studies
that show faster reading speed with RSVP without detracting from comprehension. Subjective data indicate
that Traditional is strongly preferred to RSVP as a primary reading method. Given the optimal use of
screen space, increased speed and comparable comprehension, future studies should focus on making
RSVP a more comfortable format.
