Rapid serial visual presentation in reading: The case of Spritz

作者:

Highlights:

• With personal computing devices getting smaller, reading is called into question.

• Rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) seems to be one of the main alternatives.

• We studied the effects of a RSVP app (i.e. Spritz) on comprehension and visual fatigue.

• We found that Spritz impairs literal comprehension and increases visual fatigue.

• Findings might have practical implications for implementing alternative solutions.
