Abstract

|
|
Main streams to approach the problem of fatigue phenamena are divided into the following two categories; physiological and psychological approaches. From the findings concerned we can conclude that the above one of two approaches must not exclude the other. Because of the complexity of fatigue phenomena, it will be very hopeful and productive study to utilize the two methods together.
The purpose of this pilot study of physiological fatigue in Korea is to consturct a scale for measuring feeling-tone of fatigue. Through the scale construction processes of Thurstone´s Equal Appearing Intervals Technique, a pairs of A, B equivalent scale forms were obtained. Testifying reliability and validity of the scale, we find that these equivalent scales are very reliable and powerful instrument to measure the psychological felling-tone of fatigue. A preliminary validation study of the scale was accomplished. Some criticisms and prospects on the study of fatigue were added.
