The relation between syllabic stroke intensity and typewritability

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

There is a definite correlation between syllabic stroke intensity and the amount of copy produced on the typewriter in a given time. The correlation showed that an increase in syllabic stroke intensity produced a corresponding increase in the number of strokes typed, over the range investigated. This range was from 3.hBh strokes per syllable to h.285 strokes per syllable.
