This paper reports work in progress on understanding how multitasking performance is influenced by two factors: task difficulty and task priority. In a task that involved switching between typing and controlling a cursor, these two factors were experimentally manipulated and shown to affect the chosen strategy, where a strategy was defined as the number of digits typed per visit. A cognitive model was used to explore the range of strategies and associated individual differences. The implications for using cognitive models to predict multitasking performance are explored. |
