181325 - review "cognitive behavior therapy" (CBT), ref SDS 20 QW36, in
181326 - relation to Covey's ideas on good management, ref SDS 20 3M5N, which
181327 - entails doing "homework," ref SDS 20 RQ6S, and so seems related to

181338 -    2.  Part of my research include "how to measure cognitive
181339 -        overhead".  I am confused and dont know which way to go in
181340 -        order to find such measurement.  Moreover i need to choose one
181341 -        of the method to show the measurementin my research research
181342 -        and need to justify why i have chosen such method.  I am lost
181343 -        and do not know what to do.

181346 - Being lost about measuring cognitive overhead, and not knowing what to
