| Abstract |
The critical flicker fusion frequency (CFFF), numeral discrimination speed (NDS) and the subjective feeling of fatigue and frequency of complaint were determined for female sewing machine operators, 8 of them were in their 20's, 6 in their 30's, and 10 in their 40's. CFFF was lower after work than before, and the ratio of decrease was greatest for workers in their 40's and least for workers in their 20's. NDS was also lower after work than before but the ratio of decrease was greatest for those in their 20's and least for workers in their 40's. Fatigue and frequency of complaints of fatigue were greater after work than before, and the effect was greatest on younger workers. |
