심박수(heart rate) 및 산소 소비량(oxygen consumption) 등의 생리학적 변수는 운동자각도(RPE)와 밀접한 관련이 있으며, RPE의 남녀차이에 의한 예측 운동강도의 정확성은 아직 밝혀지지 않고 있고, 본 연구는 남녀 대학생의 심장 혈관 및 신진대사의 반응을 평가하고 남녀의 차이를 밝히는 데 있다. 남자대학생($25.1{\pm}1.56$ yr)과 여자대학생($25.0{\pm}4.12$ yr) 각각 10명이 본 연구에 자발적으로 참여를 하였고, 본 연구를 위하여 설정된RPE는 Borg의 15 범주에서 결정을 하였으며, 점증적 운동부하(graded exercise testing)는 Bruce Treadmill Protocol을 이용하였다. 남녀의 평균 slope (p=0.501)와 RPE의 plotting rates와 최대산소섭취율(% $VO_2$max)은 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 각자의 상대적 최대산소섭취량은 남학생의 경우52.36${\pm}$7.35 ml/kg/min, 여학생은 41.44${\pm}$6.71 ml/kg/min로 나타나 두 그룹간에 유의하게 큰 차이가 있었으며, 절대적 최대산소섭취량은 남학생은 4.05${\pm}$0.36 l/min, 여학생은 2.53${\pm}$0.39 l/min로 나타나 두 그룹간에 큰 차이가 나타냈다. 남학생과 여학생간의 slope, y-intercept, SEE는 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다. 본 연구에서 운동강도에 따른 남학생과 여학생의 RPE 의 차이는 유의하게 나타나지 않았다. 이상의 결과로 보아 RPE는 운동중 산소섭취량에 대한 운동강도의 예측에 남녀별 차이가 없어 유효한 예측인자라고 사료된다.

Purpose : This study is to know the effect on muscle activity when people use mouse aid or not in computer working environment. Method : 11 people of both sex in their twentieth were tested. As a independent variable, the condition without mouse aid and the condition with movable mouse aid were selected, and as a dependent variable, MVC(%) on four muscles and inconvenience degree(RPE scale) on three body part(wrist, forearm, shoulder) were measured. Result : Analyzing the research, MVC(%) of extensor muscle of finger had notably higher muscle activity than other muscles, and there wasn't notable difference in muscle activity before and after using mouse aid. In case of using mouse aid, we tested by giving RPE questionnaire which segmentalized mental fatigue degree into hand, forearm, and shoulder, and resultingly, there wasn't notable differences perspectively. However, people felt less tiredness subjectively after they use the mouse aid. Conclusion : The usage of mouse aid seems to give comfort to computer users.

Purpose : This study aims to investigate the rating of perceived exertion (RPE) and muscle activity of the inspiratory primary and accessory muscle during breathing exercise with different air hole diameters of the inspiratory muscle trainer (IMT). Methods : The Borg's scale and surface electromyography (EMG) was used to collect data of the RPE and muscle activity of the inspiratory primary the external intercostal (EI) and diaphragm (DIA) and accessory muscles anterior scalene (AS), sternocleidomastoid (SCM), pectoralis major (PM), and upper trapezius (UT) muscles during breathing exercise with different air hole diameters (6 mm, 4 mm, and 2 mm) of the IMT in healthy young male subjects. Results : The RPE and muscle activities of the AS, SCM, and UT are increased significantly in accordance to the decreasing diameter of air hole of air tip in IMT. However, there are no differences in the muscle activities of the PM, EI, and DIA based on differences of diameters of air hole of air tip in IMT. Conclusion : The smaller the diametr of IMT air-hole, RPE and muscle activities of AS, SCM and UT were increased. Therefore, further study would be necessary to investigate the proper intensity and relaxation posture for the exercise protocol to strengthen the inspiratory primary muscles.

This paper examines the effects on mental task of changes in the intensity of physical activity. A treadmill-equipped instrument and perception tester were used to attain several levels of physical activity. In this paper, in order to determine the individual levels of physical activity of subjects, Borg-RPE scale, heart rate(HR) and respiratory quotient(RQ) were used. Also, an arithmetic addition test in whole-body activity on treadmill-equipped instrument as an indicator of mental task were performed. In the above experiments, the scores obtained in arithmetic addition test administered before and after physical activity at each intensity level used. Restricted within the limits of this paper, the results of these tests showed that the performance of mental task was Increased after physical activity.

Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of active movement with skin mobilization on range of motion, pain, and rating of perceived exertion in patients diagnosed with axillary web syndrome after axillary lymph node dissection. Design: A Case report Methods: It was performed on 7 patients diagnosed with axillary web syndrome after lymph node dissection. The subjects experienced a decrease in the range of joint motion and pain in movement when raising their arms in their daily lives, and complained of discomfort. The active range of motion, numeric rating scale, and modified Borg scale of shoulder joint flexion were measured, and the differences after active movement with skin mobilization were compared. Results: All subjects increased by 24.9 degree on average in active range of motion after active movement with skin mobilization intervention. There was no pain in the maximum range of joint motion measured before intervention, and rating of perceived exertion was significantly reduced. Conclusions: Active movement with skin mobilization can be a very useful way to help improve and treat axillary web syndrome, and it is recommended for improving the function and quality of life of axillary web syndrome patients. and It is also believed that it can be used steadily at home through the education of patients and families.

We investigated the effects of prolonged exposure in hot environmental condition and ingestion of fluid on various physiological variables including plasma glucose, lactate, the rating of perceived exertion (RPE), and heart rate as well as golf putting performance. Six male professional golfers were voluntarily participated in three different putting trials which were separated by seven days of time interval period. Three different putting trials were conducted at either 20℃ or 32℃, or 32℃ + Fluid ingestion. Performing 32℃ + Fluid ingestion trial, all subject ingested sport drink as much as their body mass was decreased. For each experiment, all subjects were undertaken total 48 putting, which separated by four x 12 putting in four different time points (i.e., Rest, 1 hr, 2 hr, and 3 hr). Plasma glucose concentration was significantly decreased with hot ambient condition but it was almost fully recovered by fluid ingestion. Plasma lactate concentration was significantly higher when subjects were exposed in hot environmental condition, and it did not change with fluid ingestion. There was a no different in putting performance and psychological fatigue level (performed by GRID test) at any environmental conditions. The RPE, commonly used for evaluating of physical fatigue level, was significantly dropped by fluid ingestion which indicates lower physical fatigue level. In addition to this, heart rate (HR) was also significantly decreased after fluid ingestion. Based on these results, it was concluded that the ingestion of fluid during prolonged exposure in hot ambient condition decrease the degree of physical fatigue levels and heart rate, which will possibly improve the golf performance when exposed in extreme weather condition in summer.

산업현장에서는 높은 강도의 육체적 작업에 병행하여 정신적 작업이 요구되는 경우가 있다. 육체적 작업 후에 피로의 회복을 위한 충분한 시간이 주어지지 않는 경우, 이 피로에 수반되는 정신적 피로에 의해 정신적 작업의 정확도는 저하된다는 보고가 있다. 그러나 본 연구에서는 높은 강도의 근육활동에 숙련된 그룹과 숙련되지 못한 그룹 모두에서 본 연구를 위한 실험조건 하에서는 오히려 육체적 활동 후의 정신적 작업의 정확도가 증가한다는 것이 밝혀졌다. 또한 물리적 자극에 대한 이들 그룹의 반응시간을 측정하여 정신작업의 정확도와의 관계를 해석하였다. 그 결과 반응시간은 높은 강도의 근육활동에 숙련된 그룹에서만 운동강도에 따라 안정적으로 점증하였고, 모든 피실험자 그룹에 대해서 정신작업의 정확도와 반응시간은 밀접한 관계에 있지 않음을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to compare the anaerobic threshold (AT) between subjects with and without non-specific chronic low back pain (NCLBP). The patient group included 15 women with NCLBP. The normal group included 15 women without NCLBP who were age-, height-, weight-, and activity level-matched. The subjects performed a Balke treadmill protocol which was symptom-limited progressive loading test. Their heart rate (HR), ventilatory gas and metabolic equivalents (METs) were measured using the automatic breath gas analyzing system. After the test, each subjects' ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) were evaluated. The visual analog scale (VAS) was assessed pre- and post-test. The independent t-test and Wilcoxon's signed-rank test were used for analysis of the data. Time, HR, the volume of oxygen consumption ($VO_2$), relative $VO_2$, and METs at the AT level of the patient group were significantly lower than those of the healthy group (p<.05). However, there were no significant differences in RPE, VAS, and breathing frequency at the AT level (p>.05). The findings of this study indicate that patients with NCLBP had a lower aerobic fitness than healthy subjects. Thus, implementation of rehabilitation program to increase aerobic fitness may be considered in patietns with NCLBP, and further studies are required to determine the etiological factors of decreased aerobic fitness.
