[A method to extract signals related to fatigue during visual display terminal (VDT) operation using independent component analysis]

30 Aug 2009 With the recent, rapid developments of computers, adaptation between the human being and computer is being improved. On the other hand, mental fatigue is increased by continuous, long-time use. The problem of mental fatigue is now a new focus of ... Read more...

Measurement of mental fatigability by task related spectral EEG. A pilot study.

28 Jan 2009 BACKGROUND: Task related EEG spectra are promising markers of mental activity. But the cooperation of the patients necessary for the registration limits its application in the neuro-psychiatry. METHODS: EEG difference spectra on counting (EDSC)--was ... Read more...

Mental fatigue impairs physical performance in humans.

6 Jan 2009 Mental fatigue is a psychobiological state caused by prolonged periods of demanding cognitive activity. Although the impact of mental fatigue on cognitive and skilled performance is well known, its effect on physical performance has not been ... Read more...
