Predictive Klm-Based Models for Two Sign-Out Tasks

Keystroke-Level Model Tool Predictive Equation Total Time (seconds)
Add patient Spreadsheet Texecute = 8Tp + 16TB + 4TH + 5TK 13.4
Prototype Texecute = 3Tp + 4TB + TH + TK 4.4
Modify footer Spreadsheet Texecute = 9Tp + 14TB + 2TH + TK 12.4
Prototype Texecute = 3Tp + 6TB + 2TH + TK 5.0

Note. TP (move mouse to a point) = 1.1 seconds; TB (time to press or release mouse button) = 0.1 seconds; TH (time to home hands to keyboard or mouse) = 0.4 seconds; TK (time to press a key on the keyboard) = 0.28 seconds.
