Type items by priority during batch classification sessions…
Type items by priority during batch classification sessions rather than at moment of action, converting continuous judgment into categorical lookup that preserves cognitive resources for execution.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from ego depletion (Directed Attention as Depletable Resource), dual-system processing (Cognition Operates Through Dual Processing Systems), and metabolic costs of deliberation (Conscious Processing Is Metabolically Expensive). Prescribes when to perform classification to minimize ongoing cognitive load.
