Abstract

A nonmetric weighted multidimensional scaling (MDS) procedure was used to analyze Subjective Workload Assessment Technique (SWAT) ratings of the Criterion Task Set (CTS). The results indicated that over 94 percent of the variability in SWAT ratings of CTS tasks could be represented in two orthogonal dimensions: response time and task effort.
