摘要	This study quantitatively analyzed the performance of two scrolling techniques (flick and ring) for document navigation in touch-based mobile phones by means of three input methods (index finger, pen and thumb). Our findings were as follows: (1) overall, for the three input methods, flick resulted in shorter movement time and fewer numbers of crossings than ring, suggesting that flick is superior to ring for document navigation in touch-based mobile phones; (2) regarding pen and thumb input, there were interaction effects between scrolling technique and target distance. Ring led to shorter movement time than flick for large target distance. This finding indicated that ring has a potential interaction advantage, which should be deeply explored for future scrolling technique design; (3) both flick and ring document scrolling in touch-based mobile phones can be modeled by the Anderson model [2]. We believe these findings offer several insights for scrolling technique design for document navigation in touch-based mobile phones.
