Effortfulness of Visual Working Memory: Gauged by Physical Exertion
Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2022 Active maintenance of information in working memory (WM) is an essential but effortful cognitive process. Yet, the effortful nature of WM remains poorly understood. Here, we constructed a model to evaluate how perceived effort of WM is directly compared to that of physical exertion.

Is reaction time altered by mental or physical exertion?
European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2019 Reaction time, classically divided into premotor time and electromechanical delay (EMD), can be determinant in daily life or sport situations. While some previous studies reported a negative impact of both muscle and mental fatigue on reaction time, the respective contributions of premotor time and EMD to the changes of reaction time remains unclear ...
