Mental Workload

2006
Growing complexity and increasingly automated features of modern human-machine systems are presenting operators with fewer physical demands and greater cognitive demands. Unlike physical demands, cognitive or mental demands are not directly observable. The concept of mental workload is used to benchmark the mental demands of complex systems.

Mental Workload

2021
This chapter begins with an assessment of the nature and characteristics of mental workload and how people have defined it over the years. It looks at the major techniques, their relative advantages and disadvantages and how they are enacted in practical circumstances in the many operational domains to which they can apply.

Mental Workload

2004
Mental workload (MWL) is a pervasive concept throughout the ergonomics and human factors literature (e.g., Sanders and McCormick, 1993; Singleton, 1989), and it is a topic of increasing importance. As modern technology in many working environments imposes greater cognitive demands upon operators than physical demands (Singleton, 1989), the ...

Multiple Resources and Mental Workload

Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 2008
Objective: The objective is to lay out the rationale for multiple resource theory and the particular 4-D multiple resource model, as well as to show how the model is useful both as a design tool and as a means of predicting multitask workload overload. Background: I describe the discoveries and developments regarding multiple resource theory that have ...

The Workload Curve

Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 2015
Objective: In this paper I begin looking for evidence of a subjective workload curve. Background: Results from subjective mental workload assessments are often interpreted linearly.

Mental Workload Assessment

2020 Chinese Automation Congress (CAC), 2020
Mental Workload (MWL) represents the occupancy of brain resources under working conditions and is one of the important auxiliary strategies for adaptive automation. This article uses different levels of drone simulation tasks to induce different levels of MWL, records the EEG during the control of the drone, and combines the subjective scale to explore

On the Estimation of Mental Workload.

1980
Abstract : The only practical way to attack the problems of mission delimitation, machine improvement, and operator specification in respect to mental workload appears to be computer simulations of both man and system performing a well-specified mission.

Subjective Mental Workload

Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, 1982
Subjective workload is of increasing importance in user-machine systems, as the role of the human operator becomes less to control and more to monitor complex systems. This paper reviews the relationship between physical, cognitive, manual-control, and time-stress tasks and the subjective load experienced by an operator.

Workload profiles: A continuous measure of mental workload

International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics, 2018
Abstract The required frequency and disruptive method in which existing subjective measures of mental workload are collected make them infeasible for many types of task allocation decisions. In this paper, we present a method for continually estimating workload without interrupting the operator.

Interactive Effects of Physical and Mental Workload on Subjective Workload Assessment

Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting, 2002
Relatively little research has investigated subjective workload assessment during tasks involving both physical and mental demands. Development of more comprehensive workload assessment tools depends on understanding the effects of physical and mental activity on an individual's perception of workload.
