“…For example , Brown, "Tickner, and Simmonds (1970) found that during the last three hours of a twelve-hour driving stint, drivers attempted 50 percent more "risky" overtaking maneuvers than during the first three hours. Brown et als data are at odds with those of Potts (cited by Brown et al) who found that "near N/VTRAEQUIPCEN 78-C-0113-4 accidents" decreased with time on task.…”

“…Another relevant aspect of fatigue is the narrowing of attention, in which the ability to switch adequately from one part of a problem to the next is impaired (7). A characteristic of fatigue, with potentially grave conmquences for astronauts, is a tendency to accept increasingly greater risks in spite of the reduced cognitive ability to deal with the risks (8,36). Similar effects on risk taking are found during the circadian nadir for body temperature (17).…”

ABSTRACT Background. NASA has need of a rapid, reliable and non-invasive means to objectively evaluate the cognitive ability of astronauts to perform ruission critical tasks, particularly during extended duration space flight. One such means under consideration is the Space flight-Cogniitive Assessment Tool (S-CAT), a tool designed to assesis cognitive performsance using a set of five cogntive performancetesut. The current study had multiple goals, one of whic~h was to evaluate the sensitivity of S-CAT to fatigue induced by sleep deprivailon and circadian disruption. Research Hypothesis. Since S-CAT has demonstrated sensitivity to organic neural dysfunction, it was expected to show fatigue sensitivity. Methods. Two groups of eight US mtifitary pilots (ages 30-40) were deprived of sleep for 40Inhs, over two circadian performance nadirs. In addition to S-CAT, four other cognitive performance tests were performed reputedly during the sleep deprivation period. The S-CAT bauery of tasks was performied once evety six hours up to the 33rd hour whiu lthe participants were in the experimental situation. Results. For all tests, the response time measures showed the greatest effcclN fromn fatigue. Two of the five S-CAT tests, the Matching to Sample and the Math tests, exhibited significant fatiguerelated de-cremLTita on response time. The M~atching to Sample test and the Continuous Processing test showed effec-ts on accuray and percent corrcct. F~or Continuous Processing, 4 of 6 trials were affected, beginning after 23 hrs of wakefulness and lasting until 35 hours awake-Pilovism-a to be somewhat less Xuhnerable

“…ECG and EMG signals are used for the assessment of fatigue in drivers working in public transport. The reasons entailing fatigue during vehicle driving include long duration of performing the same activity [23,24], too short sleep period [24,26,27], weariness while driving [27] as well as environmental factors (vibration, noise and too high temperature) [28,29]. Statistical analysis of road accidents suggests that there are good reasons to regard fatigue as one of the basic causes of road accidents [28,[30][31][32][33][34].…”

Objectives: The aim of the study was to verify whether simultaneous responses from the muscular and circulatory system occur in the driver's body under simulated conditions of a crash threat. Materials and Methods: The study was carried out in a passenger car driving simulator. The crash was included in the driving test scenario developed in an urban setting. In the group of 22 young male subjects, two physiological signals -ECG and EMG were continuously recorded. The length of the RR interval in the ECG signal was assessed. A HRV analysis was performed in the time and frequency domains for 1-minute record segments at rest (seated position), during undisturbed driving as well as during and several minutes after the crash. For the left and right side muscles: m. trapezius (TR) and m. flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS), the EMG signal amplitude was determined. The percentage of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) was compared during driving and during the crash. Results: As for the ECG signal, it was found that in most of the drivers changes occurred in the parame tervaluesreflectingHRVinthetimedomain.SignificantchangeswerenotedinthemeanlengthofRRintervals (mRR). As for the EMG signal, the changes in the amplitude concerned the signal recorded from the FDS muscle. The changes in ECG and EMG were simultaneous in half of the cases. Conclusion: Such parameters as mRR (ECG signal) and FDS-L amplitude (EMG signal) were the responses to accident risk. Under simulated conditions, responses from the circulatory and musculoskeletal systems are not always simultaneous.
