Distinguishing cognitive effort and working memory load using scale-invariance and alpha suppression in EEG
Despite being intuitive, cognitive effort has proven difficult to define quantitatively. Here, we proposed to study cognitive effort by investigating the degree to which the brain deviates from its default state, where brain activity is scale-invariant. Specifically, we measured such deviations by e...
