Abstract: | Application of physiological methods, in particular electroencephalography (EEG), offers new and promising approaches to educational
psychology research. EEG is identified as a physiological index that can serve as an online, continuous measure of cognitive
load detecting subtle fluctuations in instantaneous load, which can help explain effects of instructional interventions when
measures of overall cognitive load fail to reflect such differences in cognitive processing. This paper presents a review
of seminal literature on the use of continuous EEG to measure cognitive load and describes two case studies on learning from
hypertext and multimedia that employed EEG methodology to collect and analyze cognitive load data. |
