Instantaneous mental workload - Concept and potential methods for measurementThis paper provides an initial conceptual framework for instantaneous workload and describes potential methods for short-term measurement. Many existing estimation techniques can be modified for use as short-term assessment techniques. Techniques in the (1) opinion, (2) spare mental capacity, (3) primary task, and (4) physiological categories are discussed. The limitations involved in instantaneous workload, which are real and fundamental, are also described.
