Abstract
A multiple structure model of processing resources (Wickens, 1980) guided construction of tasks of differential resource demand that were both performed by subjects and rated according to workload similarity. Analysis of performance data generally supported model predictions. Multidimensional scaling analysis of the similarity data produced subjective dimensions of workload that were explained in terms of resource demand and task structure.Keywords
