Area of Science:

Human-Computer Interaction
Cognitive Psychology
Ergonomics

Background:

Dual-task performance is crucial for complex systems.
Spatial compatibility between stimuli and responses impacts cognitive load.
Understanding these effects informs interface design.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the impact of spatial compatibility on dual-task performance.
To analyze resource competition in simultaneous visual and manual tasks.
To provide design recommendations for visual interfaces.

Main Methods:

Employed a dual-task paradigm combining a tracking task and a discrete four-choice response task.
Assessed performance across various display-control configurations with differing stimulus-response compatibility.
Recruited 36 participants to perform primary tracking and secondary response tasks concurrently.

Main Results:

Varying levels of stimulus-response compatibility influenced the primary tracking task.
Performance degradation occurred in both tasks, attributed to visual and spatial resource competition.
No significant right-left prevalence effect was found with unimanual two-finger responses.

Conclusions:

Spatial compatibility significantly influences dual-task performance.
Resource competition is a key factor in performance decrements.
Interface design should consider stimulus-response compatibility to optimize user performance and minimize cognitive load.
