Abstract
Japanese has many characters so that we must use Kana-Kanji translation system. Recently, “flick input” system is commonly used for smartphones. However, while younger generations are familiar with such novel input system, elderly persons are not familiar with it. In this paper, we discuss the results of two experiments, which clarify the intergenerational gap on input behavior between younger and senior generations, such as, younger generation being highly optimized for use of smartphones.
