Abstract
Novice and expert nurses performed a hands-busy and eyes-busy task usi ng a continuous speech-input interface. This study examined their perf ormance and acceptance of the interface. Three factors were found to i mprove the user's performance: expertise in the domain, experience wit h the interface and the use of a small vocabulary. Experience with the interface corresponded with a higher degree of acceptance. Available vocabulary size and level of expertise did not affect acceptance. (C) 1997 Academic Press Limited.
