From the page: "Many believe that zebra stripes aid the reader by guiding the eye along the row. However, despite being in use in both paper and electronic mediums for almost half a century, there is practically no evidence that it actually assists users in this way."

tiny datasets, tiny test group, ambiguous results. this article is a fair waste of time, not up to the usual high bar of ALA.

Is Zebra-striping useful? Interesting research.

When used with charts, I can dart across the text fairly quickly, but without the stripes, I may take just a second longer... Its honestly not a big difference, but usually taking that extra second of effort is frustrating for some people.
