| Abstract |
Scientific methods do not yet permit satisfactory analysis of the causes and pathological effects of major physical or mental loads. This research report studies the validity of the biochemical parameters used as indices of the load. Stress and strain are defined, and results are presented of observations in subjects following physical effort or mental stress. The degree to which the parameters provide an objective measurement and a differentiation of physical and mental stresses is examined. An appendix describes in detail the analytical methods used and their reliability criteria, their applications, and the normal limits derived from them. |
