The Index of Cognitive Activity: Measuring Cognitive Workload
نویسنده
چکیده
The Index of Cognitive Activity is an innovative technique that provides an objective psychophysiological measurement of cognitive workload. As users operate in increasingly complex environments, it is essential that the designers of these environments understand the cognitive demands placed on the users. The Index of Cognitive Activity (ICA) provides an important estimate of the levels of cognitive effort of the user. The ICA is based on changes in pupil dilation that occur as a user interacts with a visual display. The Index is described, and several applications are presented. Index Tems-cognitive science, user interfaces, visual system, workstation human factors

متن کاملMeasuring Cognitive Workload with Low-Cost Electroencephalograph
Electroencephalography (EEG) is an important physiological index of cognitive workload. While previous research has employed high-end EEG devices, this work investigates the feasibility of measuring cognitive workload with a low-cost EEG system. In our experiment, EEG signals are recorded from subjects performing silent reading tasks under different difficulty levels. Experimental results demon...

Cognitive activities and the operation of tasks in the workplaces lead to the creation of a cognitive workload and specifically mental workload employee in the work environment. In order to measure these cognitive variables, physiological parameters are used. Electroencephalography is a non-invasive and relatively inexpensive method that can be used to evaluate neurophysiology and cogniti...
