Answer 2

Cognitive load theory was developed in the late 1980s out of a study of problem solving by John Sweller.

Sweller argued that instructional design can be used to reduce cognitive load in learners.

Much later, other researchers developed a way to measure perceived mental effort which is indicative of cognitive load.
