Abstract
The present study tests an extension of the Maximal Adaptability Model of Stress (Hancock & Warm, 1989) that incorporated individual differences into the model (Szalma, 2008). The purpose was to investigate how the task characteristics of information rate (event rate) and information uncertainty (number of displays to be monitored) interact with participant personality (Neuroticism) to affect the performance, workload, and stress associated with a cognitive vigilance task. Results supported claim by Szalma (2008) that the maximal adaptability model should be modified to include person characteristics.
