Physiological and subjective responses associated to physical and mental load in a simulated task
Objective: To develop a quasi-experimental study to know the changes in physiological responses and perceived efforts of a group of fifteen healthy students that performed a simulated task related with the operation of a cnc lathe in a lab environment.

| Summary: | Objective: To develop a quasi-experimental study to know the changes in physiological responses and
perceived efforts of a group of fifteen healthy students that performed a simulated task related with the
operation of a cnc lathe in a lab environment. Materials and Methods: The participants were asked to
randomly complete a total of eight sessions including single and combined test of physical and mental
load. Low/High Physical Load and Low/ High Mental Load were established as independent variables.
Heart rate, physical performance, mental performance, and effort perception were established as
dependent variables. Conclusions: High load levels have a significant effect on the heart rate increasing,
but not in the perception of effort. High levels of mental load have a significant effect on physical and
mental performance. |
