TLDR
Methods of measuring subjective difficulty, effort and other aspects of work-load which have been developed by the author and his colleagues are described and the use of these methods as means of distinguishing between individuals, and their relationships to psychometric measures are discussed.Abstract:
Methods of measuring subjective difficulty, effort and other aspects of work-load which have been developed by the author and his colleagues are described, and the use of these methods as means of distinguishing between individuals, and their relationships to psychometric measures, are discussed. Applications are noted to both physical and mental work.read more

Cognitive Architecture and Instructional Design
TL;DR: Cognitive load theory has been designed to provide guidelines intended to assist in the presentation of information in a manner that encourages learner activities that optimize intellectual performance as discussed by the authors, which assumes a limited capacity working memory that includes partially independent subcomponents to deal with auditory/verbal material and visual/2- or 3-dimensional information as well as an effectively unlimited long-term memory, holding schemas that vary in their degree of automation.

Training strategies for attaining transfer of problem-solving skill in statistics: A cognitive-load approach.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the effect of cognitive load on the transfer performance of three computer-based training strategies: the conventional, worked, and completion conditions, respectively, emphasizing the solving of conventional problems, the study of worked-out problems, and the completion of partly worked out problems.

Effects of mental fatigue on attention: An ERP study
TL;DR: The results indicate a dissociation in the effects of mental fatigue on goal-directed (top-down) and stimulus-driven (bottom-up) attention: mental fatigue results in a reduction in goal- directed attention, leaving subjects performing in a more stimulus- driven fashion.

Naturally occurring muscle pain during exercise: assessment and experimental evidence
TL;DR: The perception of leg muscle pain intensity during cycle ergometry is reliably and validly measured using the developed 10-point pain scale, which covaries as a function of objective exercise stimuli such as power output, and is distinct from RPE.
