I real incessantly with Kindle on an iPhone 5S ... so this is really relevant for me. Thoughts: 1. The worse temporal understanding could be a problem for history and bio books especially. I find myself making a quick diversion to Wikipedia quite often for additional context and information. For non-fiction you can quite easily pull up timelines etc. if you're having trouble remembering. For some reason on the iPhone I can do a quick web search without getting distracted, which is a problem for me if I try to read on my laptop. 2. Interesting to know the "reading history" of the participants. I've been reading paper books since I was quite young, I couldn't be any more comfortable with the medium. I only got comfortable with eBooks after powering through the entire ASOIAF (i.e. Game of Thrones) series on a phone screen. I find that after being acclimatized it is much easier to fully focus on the material. 3. Using the dedicated hardware (Kindle DXes) was probably quite helpful to the performance of that group. It is important that page turns etc. are fast and there is no resistance of any kind to movement through the book. I might quite naturally take short breaks during reading but having them imposed on me or any other kind of focus break would be intolerable.
