摘要

本研究旨在探討單行顯示下，選單之選項結構與作業內容，對使用者初次學習與操作績效之影響。選單結構分爲線性、二層樹狀、三層樹狀三種，作業內容共有五項，分別歸屬於簡單作業與稜雜作業；藉20個選單選項，就受試者之初始學習率、作業完成時間、錯誤率等學習與操作績效進行實驗。結果顯示：線性結構在學習率、作業完成時間與錯誤率等準則上均有較佳的表現；此外，結果也顯示作業複雜度與選單結構的交互作用，對平均完成時間有顯著效應。結論指出，在單行顯示選單介面下，選單結構的層數不宜超過二層，並且，在選項數不大時，線性結構是較佳的選擇。

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of menu structure and task type of single-line display on initial learning and operation performance for novice users. The experimental menu with 20 items was structured into three forms: linear sequence, two-level, and three-level tree, and five task types were examined. And the researchers selected the learning rate, completion time, error rate as performance criteria. The results showed that the performance of learning rate, completion time and error rate on linear sequences menu are bet1er than two tree structured menus. In addition, the findings also revealed that the interaction of menu structure and task complexity had significant cant effect on completion time. The conclusion indicated that more than two level tree structures are not suggested to be used in the single-line display. When the number of menu items are not excessively large, the linear sequence is a feasible alternative.
