Effect of multitasking, physical environment and electroencephalography use on cognitive load and retention

作者:

Highlights:

• Concurrent multitaskers had lower retention scores.

• Perceived mental effort increased in cafeteria across concurrent multitaskers.

• Working memory and perceived mental effort predicted retention.

• EEG and non-EEG groups did not differ in terms of dependent variables.

• Perceived mental effort is related with the beta frequency (F7).
