Abstract

 The purposes of this study are to survey stereotypes of control-display relationships for seven principalcontrols in passenger cars using the paper-pencil and hardware tests, and to examine stereotype strength ofthe paper-pencil test through comparing the stereotypes for the controls derived by the two methods. Ninetytwo and 60 college-aged students participated in the paper-pencil test and the real car simulation of thehardware test, respectively. There are dominant motion-directions for all controls in the paper-pencil test, whilein the hardware test, there are dominant motion-directions for six controls including head light, high beam,door window, ignition key, door key and door lock controls. The stereotypes of motion-directions for sixcontrols obtained by the paper-pencil test were the same as or similar to those by the hardware test. It wasinferred from this that the congruence of the stereotypes by the two methods might be attributed to twosimple motion-direction principles of ‘clockwise for increase’ and ‘upward for increase.’ Although it is knownthat the hardware test would be best for obtaining accurate stereotypes between controls and displays, thisstudy implies that if the paper-pencil test is well designed, the paper-pencil test can produce the same resultsas the hardware test at low cost and without consuming time.
