| Abstract |
Review of recently published literature on fatigue, stress and mental health - the emphasis is on the relationship between psychosocial stress and new technologies such as those using computers. A global approach to these concepts leads to a more encompassing ergonomic analysis of working conditions. The usefulness of epidemiologic methods in the prevention of psychosocial stress is demonstrated. |
