Cassenti, Daniel N., Kelley, Troy D., Colle, Herbert A. and McGregor, Elizabeth A. (2011): Modeling Performance Measures and Self-Ratings of Workload in a Visual Scanning Task. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 55th Annual Meeting 2011. pp. 870-874.

Mental workload is the amount of demand on an individual's limited mental resources and thus is an important consideration in human factors research. This research focuses on workload from two primary methods of measuring it -- self-ratings of workload and performance. An experiment to test workload involved the manipulation of the number of tasks to be performed at once and the time available to respond to the task or tasks. The results show that performance changes by shifting between ceiling, linear decrease, and floor performance as workload increases. SWAT ratings of workload followed the same pattern. We conclude that the IMPRINT (Improved Performance Research Integration Tool; Archer&Adkins, 1999) modeling system should maintain its existing method of modeling self ratings of workload, but that they may make use of a new algorithm based on this data to model performance as workload changes.

Couture, Jerritte H., Colle, Herbert A. and Reid, Gary B. (2005): Navigation Fidelity in 3D Perspective Displays for Web-Based Shopping: From Nodes to Views. In International Journal of Human-Computer Interaction, 19 (2) pp. 181-200.

To assess its usefulness as a Web navigation-aiding metaphor, a virtual Euclidean space was created that participants (N = 96) navigated to find information in a Web shopping environment. Acquisition of configural-survey 3-dimensional (3D) spatial knowledge of the environment, measured with pointing and sketch map tasks, was compared using perspective displays of virtual environments created using Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) versus a 3D graphics engine. HTML navigation fidelity was manipulated by varying the turn angles and the number of viewpoints per store. Lower navigation fidelity reduced configural knowledge acquisition, but HTML store environments using 45?-turn angles and 9 viewpoints per store were not reliably different from the 3D virtual environment generated by a graphics engine with optical flow. Target object location (within-store, between-store) also had a significant effect. The results indicate that HTML could be used to develop virtual Web shopping environments using discrete perspective displays. Implications for Web shopping interface design are discussed.

Reid, Gary B. and Colle, Herbert A. (1988): Critical SWAT Values for Predicting Operator Overload. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 32nd Annual Meeting 1988. pp. 1414-1418.

The Subjective Workload Assessment Technique (SWAT) has been used to assess mental workload in a variety of situations. As with subjective techniques generally, use of SWAT has emphasized relative comparisons of task conditions. For example, it has been possible to determine if one task or display required a greater mental workload than another. For many applications, however, it would be useful to have identified a critical SWAT level that indicates likely performance degradation caused by operator overload. A review of previously completed studied suggests a range of SWAT scores that were predictive of operator overload.

Colle, Herbert A. and Jenkins, Mary-Louise (1987): Estimating Capacity Equivalence Curves Following Practice on a Consistently Mapped Task. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 31st Annual Meeting 1987. pp. 689-693.

Capacity equivalence curves were obtained both before and after practice on a consistently mapped task. The test of primary task independence was conducted on both sets of data. Support for the independence assumption was found under both conditions. The results suggest that capacity equivalence curves may be valid for partially automatized tasks as well as with unpracticed tasks.
