Error correction strategy

The methods and behaviours users employ to detect and fix errors during text input, including backspace deletion, cursor repositioning, autocorrect, and retyping. For blind and visually impaired users, error correction is disproportionately costly because detecting errors requires sequential auditory review rather than visual scanning, cursor positioning is difficult without visual feedback, and one-third of correction attempts may be counterproductive — deleting correct characters. Designing efficient non-visual error correction mechanisms is one of the most significant challenges in accessible text entry, as users may spend over 13% of total typing time on corrections.
