Previous work in the field of cognitive pupillometry has established that pupil size is associated with cognitive load. We conducted a within-subject experiment with 22 children aged between 7 and 9. For the hard questions, visit duration, pupil size and its quadratic effect were significant predictors. We discuss the potential of using this unobtrusive approach for neuro-adaptive and auto-adaptive applications.
