I'm not sure how it can be taken as "generic". It's actually very specific in terms of interaction performance. Anyone who has actually done the study should know the metrics instantly.
To rephrase/clarify, the data I'm looking for: 1. Time difference in user data entry rate between form fields and quick entry grids; 2. The variation in this difference when the grid includes all the same fields as in the full form, compared to a truncated version (due to field prioritization); 3. Effects of horizontal scroll in data entry in the grid; Note that the grid entry is very similar to an Excel spreadsheet input with the exception that there may be some controls (i.e. dropdown list) within certain cells. I find it a very interesting concept and because of this "nonstandard" behavior, I'm not entirely open to the idea. I'd like to be convinced something this different really works well and gives benefits to the users. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
