Reading Online Text with a Poor Layout: Is Performance Worse?
"This study examined the effects of enhanced layout (headers, indentation, and figure placement) on reading performance, comprehension, and satisfaction. Participants read text passages with and without enhanced layout. Results showed that reading speed and comprehension were not affected by layout, however, participants were more satisfied with the enhanced layout and reported it to be less fatiguing to read." (Barbara S. Chaparro et al. - SURL 7.1)
