“Numerous studies in various fields have also found pupillometry to be useful to measure cognitive load (Beatty 1982;Hess 1965;Hess and Polt 1964;Kahneman and Beatty 1966;Klingner et al. 2008Klingner et al. , 2011;;Paas et al. 2003;Szulewski et al. 2014).”

In the citing paper
“In an early experiment, Hess (1965) showed that pupil size increased when arithmetic problems were presented to participants, peaked when the answer was given and then dropped off again.”

“Furthermore, large eyes may be more effective than other neonate cues, such as round cheeks, in conveying the desirable qualities of youthfulness (Terry, 1977) because a target's eyes draw a disproportionate amount of attention during facial scanning (Hess, 1965; McKelvie, 1976).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
