Primes¶
- Representational Modality
- The principle that visual patterns are easier to grasp than long sequences of numbers applies in education, interface design, and scientific communication, as Mayer and Moreno (2003) document across nine cognitive-load reduction strategies that all exploit cross-modal complementarity.
This sourceReviews nine evidence-based strategies that exploit cross-modal complementarity (off-loading, segmenting, signaling, etc.); demonstrates that modality-effect principles transfer across instructional, design, and communication contexts.

Domain-specific¶
- Cognitive Load
- Manipulable by design. Extraneous load can be reduced by format changes; intrinsic load can be staged or chunked; germane load can be invited by scaffolding — so designs can move a task toward or away from overload via the load-management strategy.
