We analyze how socio-demographic, temporal, and variability-based factors shape machine-learning workload prediction from eye-tracking and head-movement data of air traffic controllers. Time-on-task raises performance slightly, while experience and clustering based on variability in eye-tracking and head-movement patterns yield larger gains, showing that models benefit when they incorporate individual differences.
