Recommendations for Mental Workload Measurement in a Test and Evaluation Environment
Abstract
Research performed during the last decade on estimation of mental workload has resulted in a subset of techniques exhibiting global sensitivity. Other techniques have also been demonstrated to have sensitivity in particular applications and can be used for diagnostic purposes. This paper reviews techniques that have shown sufficient sensitivity and robustness to be used in test and evaluation. Topics such as time scale considerations, available documentation, and appropriate procedures are also discussed. Recommendations are then made for workload estimation in test and evaluation situations.

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.
