Abstract
Although a variety of metrics are available for workload assessment, little research has been conducted to construct guidelines for optimally matching them to individual workload questions or test environments. In an effort to remedy this problem, AFAMRL is currently developing a standardized methodology which will be used to evaluate candidate workload measures on several theoretical and pragmatic criteria. The central feature of this methodology is a set of representative loading tasks. This paper outlines the analyses that were conducted to screen potential components of the Criterion Task Set (CTS) and describes the tasks which were selected to produce demands on a number of functional dimensions of information processing.
