摘要

本研究考察了中英文交通标志中字体变量的变化。特别是，它考虑了连接间距——中国传说与其英文翻译之间的垂直距离——对读英文但不读中文的参与者的阅读表现的影响。参与者被展示了驾驶视频模拟，其中包括四个连接空间度量（1/6H、1/3H、1/2H、3/4H，其中H是一个汉字的高度），并被要求指示方向。采用了一种具有准确性检查的阈值方法。研究表明，连接间距影响了参与者的阅读表现，是双书写符号易读性的一个重要考虑因素。

Effects of changes in spacing on dual-script sign legibility

This study examined changes to typographic variables in Chinese-English traffic signs. Particularly, it considered the effect of connecting spacing – the vertical distance between a Chinese legend and its English translation – on reading performance for participants who read English but not Chinese. Participants were shown driving video simulations, featuring four connecting space measures (1/6H, 1/3H, 1/2H, 3/4H where H is the height of one Chinese character) and asked to indicate directions. A threshold method with an accuracy check was applied. The study demonstrated that connecting spacing affected participants’ reading performance and is an important consideration for dual-script sign legibility.

期刊介绍： Information Design Journal (IDJ) is a peer reviewed international journal that bridges the gap between research and practice in information design. IDJ is a platform for discussing and improving the design, usability, and overall effectiveness of ‘content put into form’ — of verbal and visual messages shaped to meet the needs of particular audiences. IDJ offers a forum for sharing ideas about the verbal, visual, and typographic design of print and online documents, multimedia presentations, illustrations, signage, interfaces, maps, quantitative displays, websites, and new media. IDJ brings together ways of thinking about creating effective communications for use in contexts such as workplaces, hospitals, airports, banks, schools, or government agencies.
