What is it about?

The effect of spatial compatibility on dual-task performance for various display-control configurations was studied using a tracking task and a discrete four-choice response task. The experimental setup simulated a very competitive scenario in which visual and spatial resources as well as attentional resources were simultaneously demanded for performing the dual tasks, so as to identify and hence explain the resource competition at different stages of the dual-task processing.

Why is it important?

The analyses of keen competition for visual and spatial resources in processing the dual tasks under different degrees of stimulus-response compatibility provide useful ergonomics design implications and recommendations for visual interfaces requiring frequent visual scanning.
