DOI: 10.1007/s00426-021-01622-2
Abstract: Attention may be important for actively maintaining posture during computer tasks, resulting in a dual-task tradeoff, where maintaining posture through extrinsic feedback imposes cognitive load. Mindfulness may make intrinsic postural feedback (which imposes less cognitive… read more here.
