Boehm, Udo; Matzke, Dora; Gretton, Matthew; Castro, Spencer; Cooper, Joel; Skinner, Michael; Strayer, David; Heathcote, Andrew – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2021
Human operators often experience large fluctuations in cognitive workload over seconds timescales that can lead to sub-optimal performance, ranging from overload to neglect. Adaptive automation could potentially address this issue, but to do so it needs to be aware of real-time changes in operators' spare cognitive capacity, so it can provide help…

Han, Areum; Krieger, Florian; Borgonovi, Francesca; Greiff, Samuel – Large-scale Assessments in Education, 2023
Process data are becoming more and more popular in education research. In the field of computer-based assessments of collaborative problem solving (ColPS), process data have been used to identify students' test-taking strategies while working on the assessment, and such data can be used to complement data collected on accuracy and overall…

Hildreth, Charles – 1981
Recent research on human factors in the man-machine communications interface is reviewed and discussed as it relates to the problem of establishing optimal system response times for the various kinds of tasks performed at the computer terminal. Optimal system response time is operationally defined, and the conflicting demands of system design,…

Marquez, Mark E.; Lehman, James D. – Journal of Educational Multimedia and Hypermedia, 1992
Describes a study of students at Purdue University that examined the roles of gender, right- versus left-handedness, and mouse experience in preferences concerning the placement of icon buttons within hypermedia user-interface designs. Response rate is examined, order of presentation is discussed, and further research is suggested. (11 references)…
