Comparing the concepts of mental load and stress

Ergonomics, 1993
This paper delineates mental load and stress as two related concepts that originate from different theoretical frameworks. A proper distinction between the two concepts is important, not only for theory building, but because it may lead also to different interpretations of experimental results, and, consequently, to different recommendations in applied

The influence of mental load on muscle tension

Ergonomics, 2013
We examined the differences in muscle tension and in physiological measures depending on the type of mental task. Fifteen participants performed tests for sustained attention, vigilance and maintaining posture only. We analysed electromyogram (EMG) measures of extensor digitorum (ED), flexor carpi ulnaris (FU), deltoideus (DE) and trapezius (TR), and ...

Abstract The term mental load can be used for the implications of tasks calling on the information handling capacity of man. The essential aspects of the terms ‘ load ’ and ‘ capacity ’, as used in work physiology, are valid for mental load in the following ways: the question of the physiological ‘ costs ’ (biological consequences) of a given ...

Mapping Mental Load in Car Driving

Ergonomics, 1978
Abstract A system is being developed which permits the identification of traffic locations which impose a heavy mental load on the car driver. The method employs a car equipped with a video-recorder, of which the camera is mounted behind the windscreen, continuously recording the independent variable of traffic load.
