Workload
The term workload can refer to several different yet related entities. An amount of labor An old definition refers to workload as the amount of work an individual has to do.Jex, S. M. (1998). Stress and job performance: Theory, research, and implications for managerial practice. Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage. There is a distinction between the actual amount of work and the individual's perception of the workload. To distinguish the two types, the term 'mental workload' (MWL) is often preferred, clearly indicating the latter type, which refers to the workload experienced by a human, regardless of the task's difficulty. This is because the same underlying task might generate two distinct mental responses and experiences, thus, different cognitive load amounts, even if executed by the same person. Many definitions of mental workload have been proposed in the years. A more recent and operational definition is that "Mental workload (MWL) represents the degree of activation of a finite poo ...
