Cognitive Load

description:

Cognitive load refers to the amount of mental effort required to process information or complete a task. It can be influenced by factors such as task complexity, the individual's working memory capacity, and the design of learning materials or environments. In knowledge work, cognitive load refers to the strain imposed by juggling too many tasks, decisions, or pieces of information simultaneously. High cognitive load reduces focus, increases errors, and slows down decision-making.
