Effects of Reducing the Cognitive Load of Mathematics Test Items on Student Performance

open access: yesNumeracy, 2015
This study explores a new item-writing framework for improving the validity of math assessment items. The authors transfer insights from Cognitive Load Theory (CLT), traditionally used in instructional design, to educational measurement.

Understanding instructional design effects by differentiated measurement of intrinsic, extraneous, and germane cognitive load [PDF]

open access: yesInstructional Science, 2020
AbstractInstructional design deals with the optimization of learning processes. To achieve this, three aspects need to be considered: (1) the learning task itself, (2) the design of the learning material, and (3) the activation of the learner’s cognitive processes during learning. Based on Cognitive Load Theory, learners also need to deal with the task

Using eye movements, electrodermal activities, and heart rates to predict different types of cognitive load during reading with background music

open access: yesScientific Reports
The triarchic model of cognitive load postulates three types of cognitive load—extraneous, intrinsic, and germane load. While various approaches have been proposed to measure the three types of cognitive load, most measurements are intrusive.

Signaling in 360° Desktop Virtual Reality Influences Learning Outcome and Cognitive Load

open access: yesFrontiers in Education, 2022
Learning with desktop virtual reality learning environments (DVR) can be highly visual and present many visual stimuli simultaneously. This can be distracting and require instructional support to help learners in their learning processes.

Construct and Predictive Validity of an Instrument for Measuring Intrinsic, Extraneous and Germane Cognitive Load [PDF]

open access: yesUniversal Journal of Psychology, 2016
The aims of this study were to assess the factor structure of a new instrument for the measurement of intrinsic, extraneous and germane cognitive load in a Bosnian sample, to determine the internal consistency of this instrument and to determine whether the instrument predicts learning outcomes.
