“…By using this strategy, all corresponding elements of the two visualizations are exactly at the same spatial location, thereby avoiding split attention effects. However, on the other hand, the visual complexity of the display, defined as the absolute number of subcomponents of the image, is substantially increased (Donderi, 2006;Forsythe, Sheehy, & Sawey, 2003) thus resulting in high-complex displays. Cognitive load theory identified inherent complexity or element interactivity as one source for intrinsic cognitive load (Ginns, 2006;Sweller & Chandler, 1994).…”
