Furthermore, the risk of musculoskeletal diseases increases in fatiguing work. With the purpose of reducing given extreme postures musculoskeletal disorders (hands above head, raised shoulders, and neck bent backward) an alternative working tool for plaster ceiling job was introduced. The new tool has an extended handle that enables to work with hands about hip level. The new tool also utilizes a spring for a better plastering. To evaluate the effectiveness of the new tool, a within-subject experiment was conducted. A total of 24 participants (age 20-60 years old) were involved. They were recruited among professional workers who simulated plaster ceiling work for two hours. Fatigue development was measured through changes in: Rate of Perceived Discomfort (RPD) using the Borg scale, Hand grip strength, Heart rate, Blood pressure and Maximum Voluntary Contraction (MVC) of the middle deltoid muscle. The data was collected every 20 minutes, and then changes in measures overtime were then analyzed. The results showed that plastering with the new tool was less fatiguing than the traditional too (p <;0.001). In addition RPD seemed to be the most sensitive fatigue measure followed by declines in hand grip strength, MVC reduction and changes in heart rate. In conclusion, the new working tool was more effective and can be used in construction work. The methods used in this study can be applied in evaluating the effectiveness of ergonomic interventions that have an effect on the physical workload.","PeriodicalId":111259,"journal":{"name":"2012 Southeast Asian Network of Ergonomics Societies Conference (SEANES)","volume":"417 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117315916","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Head up display (HUD) is now being used in automobiles to assist with navigation. The advantage of this system is reducing the number and duration of the driver's sight deviations from the road, by projecting graphic information on the windshield. Nevertheless, there has been little study as to how to use the super-imposed graphic such as guided arrows for car navigation system. The aim of the study is to evaluate the superimposition properties between the guided arrow marked on the road and the guided arrow on the center of the driver's field of vision, including the position of arrows. The subjects are assigned to carry out a car simulation test using an eye tracking device. The data was recorded in terms of eye movement and response time from both types of graphics in order to measure the driver's distraction. The results show that though the shape of the graphic has no effect, the location of the arrows does. The guide arrow also did not distract experienced drivers. This study can contribute a guideline for road safety.","PeriodicalId":111259,"journal":{"name":"2012 Southeast Asian Network of Ergonomics Societies Conference (SEANES)","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115382057","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Measures of workplace strain (GHQ-12 score) and cognitive failure (cognitive failures questionnaire score) were obtained for 53 cohort members who had suffered a minor accident between 2007-2010. Each accident case was matched by age, seniority and gender with accident-free controls from the same cohort. It was found that: accident cases had higher GHQ and CFQ scores when compared to controls; people who had suffered psychological strain at work were approximately three times more likely to have an accident. Minor accidents at work are not random occurrences - they are more likely when personnel are under stress due to high work demands. Those with increased susceptibility to cognitive failures (i.e., a CFQ >;40) were approximately four times more likely to have an accident. The link between workplace stress and workplace safety should be made explicit to managers via health and safety programmes. Individuals suffering from chronic stress should be placed in less challenging environments, particularly if they typically work in high hazard industries and have to deal with cognitively demanding situations. Where it is not possible to change the work environment, the CFQ could be used as a selection tool - accident-prone people, most at risk when under stress, can be identified easily.","PeriodicalId":111259,"journal":{"name":"2012 Southeast Asian Network of Ergonomics Societies Conference (SEANES)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126559809","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such devices are common in the United States of America but not widely exploited in Asia. We designed a home-based pill dispenser known as MedMate. Users' perceived acceptance of a new technology such as MedMate affects its actual usage. Thus, we created a paper prototype of MedMate to get feedbacks from users early in the development cycle. We conducted a user study consisting of a questionnaire adapted from the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), followed by an interview to gain more in-depth understanding of the users' perceived acceptance and more importantly their concerns regarding MedMate. The results of the user study show that the participants were positive about its usefulness and ease-of-use. More than two third of the participants were willing to accept and use the pill dispenser in their homes but with some concerns. Their main concerns include affordability, portability, reliability, safety and security, privacy, maintenance, durability, efficiency of reminder, accessibility and capability in handling different forms of medication. These findings resonate with our prior studies on the acceptance of other home-based medical devices such as mobile ECG-measuring devices. Thus, most of these factors can be extended for consideration when designing other home-based medical devices.","PeriodicalId":111259,"journal":{"name":"2012 Southeast Asian Network of Ergonomics Societies Conference (SEANES)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132479630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
