A tool for measuring mental workload during prosthesis use: The Prosthesis Task Load Index (PROS-TLX) (2023)
Journal Article
Parr, J., Galpin, A., Uiga, L., Wright, D., Franklin, Z., & Wood, G. (in press). A tool for measuring mental workload during prosthesis use: The Prosthesis Task Load Index (PROS-TLX). PLoS ONE, 18(5), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0285382

When using a upper-limb prosthesis, mental, emotional, and physical effort is often experienced. These have been linked to high rates of device dissatisfaction and rejection. Therefore, understanding and quantifying the complex nature of workload exp... Read More about A tool for measuring mental workload during prosthesis use: The Prosthesis Task Load Index (PROS-TLX).
