How spatial information structuring in an interactive technological environment affects decision performance under working memory load

作者:

Highlights:

• Assesses effectiveness of self-structuring to support decisions under varying load.

• Structuring is implemented in the interactive environment of a multi-touch table.

• Partial evidence of better decision support with spatial structuring at high load.

• Spatial self-structuring improved processing depth independent of load.

• Specific structuring strategies rather than overall amount enhanced decisions.
