Dual-tasking refers to the ability to perform two tasks simultaneously. This research area investigates how individuals can efficiently allocate cognitive resources when faced with multiple tasks at the same time. Studies in dual-tasking examine how factors such as task complexity, task similarity, and individual differences impact performance on both tasks. Researchers also explore strategies that individuals use to prioritize tasks and manage competing demands on their attention and cognitive resources. Dual-tasking research has implications for understanding human multitasking abilities and can inform the design of technologies and environments that require individuals to juggle multiple tasks effectively.
