Jeong et al.: Same Puzzle, Different Answer Buttons, Different Difficulty — Fukai Reads
A peer-reviewed paper on cognitive load and interaction design by Harim Jeong and colleagues (JMIR Serious Games). Holding a tablet Stroop stimulus fixed and changing only the answer options from written labels to color patches raised accuracy from 0.86 to 0.91 and cut reaction time by 85.4 ms across 127 children aged 6-12. Prefrontal neural indices showed no significant difference.
