Abstract

Introduction: Extensive development of written interactions in the current world of technology in one hand, and noticeable dominance of English language in this milieu on the other hand, has led to inadequate utilization of Farsi language even amongst native speakers. Lack of experimental data regarding LEGIBILITY and READABILITY of printed and electronic texts related to this language has been the main theory behind the current research, which was designed to evaluate correlations between typography and READING PERFORMANCE.Materials and Methods: Eighty-four Persian speaking university students, without any specific visual impairments participated in the study. Frequently used Farsi FONTs, edited in equal pixel areas and sizes, were evaluated through LEGIBILITY and READABILITY tests. Word detection and word search techniques were considered for each test. All trails were designed within similar visual interaction conditions to avoid any background biases.Results: Statistical analyses revealed correlations between typography and readying performance in Farsi (compared to English). Amongst six frequently used FONTs studied, LEGIBILITY was significantly higher in Yekan (t(83)=-2.649, p=0.012). Likewise, READABILITY was significantly smoother in Zar FONT (t(83)=-2.194, p=0.037).Conclusion: The current approach towards classification of Persian FONTs confirms the outcomes of the present study. FONTs frequently used for development of body of the texts usually have higher LEGIBILITY, and types used for presentation purposes mainly possess higher READABILITY.
