Prevalence of Fatigue and Its Determinants among Chemical Transportation Drivers in Chonburi

open access: yesApplied Environmental Research, 2017
Driver fatigue is a recognized risk factor for commercial road transport industry drivers. The aim of this cross-sectional research was to assess the fatigue and its determining factors among 99 chemical transportation drivers in Chonburi.

Recognizing Words and Reading Sentences with Microsecond Flash Displays. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Strings of dots can be used to construct easily identifiable letters, and these in turn can be used to write words and sentences. Prior work found that respondents could identify individual letters when all the dots were simultaneously flashed for an ...

FLICKER FUSION IN MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1961
This paper is concerned with a study of thresholds of critical flicker fusion frequency (C.F.F.) of a light stimulus in patients suffering from multiple sclerosis. The capacity of normal human vision to appreciate the intermittency of rapidly repeated light stimuli is a function of great physiological interest, and it may be impaired by disease at many

Investigating the effect of luminosity and color temperature of light sources on the extent of mental and visual fatigue under experimental conditions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Health Engineering, 2023
Aim: Undesirable lighting can affect the visual system, as well as mental, neuropsychological, and physiological efficiency of staff. The present study was done to determine the effect of luminosity and nominal correlated color temperature (NCCT) on the ...

How long depends on how fast--perceived flicker dilates subjective duration.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
How do humans perceive the passage of time and the duration of events without a dedicated sensory system for timing? Previous studies have demonstrated that when a stimulus changes over time, its duration is subjectively dilated, indicating that duration

Nocturnal Myrmecia ants have faster temporal resolution at low light levels but lower adaptability compared to diurnal relatives

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Nocturnal insects likely have evolved distinct physiological adaptations to enhance sensitivity for tasks, such as catching moving prey, where the signal-noise ratio of visual information is typically low.

Age Related Decline in Cortical Multifocal Flash VEP: Latency Increases Shown to Be Predominately Magnocellular

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2019
As the visual system ages, flicker sensitivity decreases and the latencies of cortical visual evoked potentials (VEP) increase. However, the extent to which these effects reflect age-related changes in the magnocellular (M) and or parvocellular (P ...

Effect of a single dose of dextromethorphan on psychomotor performance and working memory capacity

open access: yesIndian Journal of Psychological Medicine, 2012
Background: Previous studies show that the prolonged use of dextromethorphan produces cognitive deterioration in humans. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a single dose of dextroemthrophan on psychomotor performance and working ...

Central Beneficial Effects of Trimetazidine on Psychomotor Performance in Normal Healthy Volunteers

open access: yesAdvanced Biomedical Research, 2017
Background: Trimetazidine is a fatty oxidation inhibitor, leading to shifting of energy substrate from fatty acid oxidation toward glucose oxidation that leads to the reduction of oxygen requirement.
