A Comparison between Two Rating Scales for Perceived Exertion
Thirtytwo subjects,16 men and 16 women, participated in an experiment to compare two commonly used rating scales for perception of exertion, viz. the Borg RPE scale and the Borg CR10 scale (see, e.g., Borg, 1998). One group of 8 men and 8 women used each scale. Workloads were increased every minute, with 15 W for men, and with 10 W for women, to a voluntary maximum. With a basic perceptual nois...
متن کاملIndividual differences in perceived bitterness predict liking of sweeteners.
Although recent molecular studies suggest that only one receptor and one signaling pathway are involved in the perception of sweetness, this seems to contradict everyday experience that people not only have different likes and dislikes of certain sweeteners but also perceive the sweeteners differently. One possible explanation is that variation in liking of sweeteners is due, in part, to variat...
متن کاملJudgment of perceived exertion by static and dynamic facial expression
Unlike facial expressions of emotion, the effect of static and dynamic facial information on the perception of physical exertion have not been discussed in much depth. The purpose of this study is to examine whether the observer could perceive exertion by others based only on static or dynamic facial expression. And to examine which conditions (static and dynamic exertion face) could be better ...
متن کاملDifferences between novice and experienced caregivers in muscle activity and perceived exertion while repositioning bedridden patients.
The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of caregiver knowledge and experience on muscle activity and perceived exertion while repositioning bedridden patients. Subjects were 40- to 65-year-old female caregivers divided into novice and experienced groups. Subjects from both groups performed home-care repositioning techniques on bedridden patients while muscle activity was recorded vi...
متن کاملIndividual differences in brain activity during visuo-spatial processing assessed by slow cortical potentials and LORETA.
Using slow-cortical potentials (SCPs), Vitouch et al. demonstrated that subjects with low ability to solve a complex visuo-spatial imagery task show higher activity in occipital, parietal and frontal cortex during task processing than subjects with high ability. This finding has been interpreted in the sense of the so-called "neural efficiency" hypothesis, which assumes that the central nervous...
