Research abstract
Many tasks in computerized work environments can exceed a person's capacity to attend to and analyze information. Although the cognitive workload of the user is thus a prime consideration in designing improved interfaces and advanced adaptive automationstrategies, there is no good way to measure it. We previously demonstrated the feasibility of using scalp-recorded EEG signals for assessing functional brain activation during computer-mediated work, based on a one-compartment (
