Shih, Ching-Hsiang – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2013
This study provided that people with multiple disabilities can have a collaborative working chance in computer operations through an Enhanced Multiple Cursor Dynamic Pointing Assistive Program (EMCDPAP, a new kind of software that replaces the standard mouse driver, changes a mouse wheel into a thumb/finger poke detector, and manages mouse…

Shih, Ching-Hsiang – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2012
This study used a standard keyboard with a newly developed finger-pressing position detection program (FPPDP), i.e. a new software program, which turns a standard keyboard into a finger-pressing position detector, to evaluate whether two people with developmental disabilities would be able to actively perform fine motor activities to control their…

Shih, Ching-Hsiang – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2012
Software technology is adopted by the current research to improve the Drag-and-Drop abilities of two people with multiple disabilities and minimal motor control. This goal was realized through a Dynamic Drag-and-Drop Assistive Program (DDnDAP) in which the complex dragging process is replaced by simply poking the mouse wheel and clicking. However,…

Shih, Ching-Hsiang – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2011
This study evaluated whether two people with multiple disabilities and minimal motor behavior would be able to improve their Drag-and-Drop (DnD) performance using their finger/thumb poke ability with a mouse scroll wheel through a Dynamic Drag-and-Drop Assistive Program (DDnDAP). A multiple probe design across participants was used in this study…

Shih, Ching-Hsiang; Shih, Ching-Tien; Chiu, Hsin-Chin – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2010
The latest research adopting software technology to improve pointing performance is through an Extended Automatic Pointing Assistive Program (EAPAP). However, EAPAP has some limitations. This study evaluated whether two children with developmental disabilities would be able to improve their pointing performance through an Extended Dual Cursor…

Shih, Ching-Hsiang; Chang, Man-Ling; Shih, Ching-Tien – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2010
This study assessed whether two persons with multiple disabilities would be able to control environmental stimulation using limb swing with a gyration air mouse and a newly developed limb movement detection program (LMDP, i.e., a new software program that turns a gyration air mouse into a precise limb movement detector). The study was performed…

Shih, Ching-Hsiang; Shih, Ching-Tien; Peng, Chin-Ling – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2011
This study evaluated whether two people with multiple disabilities would be able to improve their pointing performance through an Automatic Target Acquisition Program (ATAP) and a newly developed mouse driver (i.e. a new mouse driver replaces standard mouse driver, and is able to monitor mouse movement and intercept click action). Initially, both…
