Measuring mental workload using physiological measures: A systematic review - ScienceDirect

• A review of the physiological measurement of mental workload was conducted. • Results indicate that physiological measures are sensitive to mental workload. • No one measure can satisfy all measurement requirements. • Some measures are not appropriate for certain environments. • Practitioners and researchers need to triangulate physiological measures. A review of the physiological measurement of mental workload was conducted. Results indicate that physiological measures are sensitive to mental workload. No one measure can satisfy all measurement requirements. Some measures are not appropriate for certain environments. Practitioners and researchers need to triangulate physiological measures. Technological advances have led to physiological measurement being increasingly used to measure and predict operator states. Mental workload (MWL) in particular has been characterised using a variety of physiological sensor data. This systematic review contributes a synthesis of the liter
