Table 2 Strengths and weaknesses of using EDA to measure workload in maritime operations
From: Analysis of maritime team workload and communication dynamics in standard and emergency scenarios
Strengths of EDA measures | Weaknesses of EDA measures |
|---|---|
 immediate response to stress events  immediate ability to monitor performance  no interruption of task (ecological validity)  good ability to demonstrate correlation of activation between team members  ‘behavioural synchronicity’, or synchrony |  inconsistency of GSR signal  susceptibility of GSR signal to heat, other disruptions |
