Quantifying the Impact of Adaptive Space and Inclusive Design on User Experience in Exhibition Halls: A Mixed-Methods Study in Wuhan, China

As exhibition halls become highly adaptable and technology-driven, they risk excluding aging demographics due to cognitive barriers. Addressing the empirical gap regarding this tension, this study validates a quantitative evaluation model b...

Cognitive load and prefrontal neuromodulation shape exploration, risk-taking, and information seeking in experience-based decision making.

When illustrations mislead: cognitive load and the simple view of reading in scientific text learning.

DEVELOPING AN APPROACH TO MULTIMODAL QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF INTERVIEWERS’ COGNITIVE LOAD: FIRST RESULTS OF A FIELD QUASI EXPERIMENT

The belief that survey research instruments mediating communication between interviewer and respondent influence the quality of data obtained in the interview has become a conventional methodological wisdom long ago. However, the impact of ...

Experience in a Climate Microworld: Influence of Surface and Structure Learning, Problem Difficulty, and Decision Aids in Reducing Stock-Flow Misconceptions

Research shows that people’s wait-and-see preferences for actions against climate change are a result of several factors, including cognitive misconceptions. The use of simulation tools could help reduce these misconceptions concerning Eart...

Educational environment perception and cognitive load among physical therapy students during e-learning

Background: Understanding students' perception of the educational environment and their cognitive load in this context is crucial for optimizing the effectiveness of e-learning platforms. Objective: To compare educational environment perce...

User perspectives on AI explainability in aerospace manufacturing: a Card-Sorting study
