the theory that attentional capacity shrinks under low task demand, so underload as well as overload can impair performance.

In human factors, malleable attentional resources theory refers to the theory that attentional capacity shrinks under low task demand, so underload as well as overload can impair performance. This meaning comes from Young (2002) in Human Factors: The Journal of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society.[1]
